St Mary's Church, Aldworth.

This afternoon I went out with Mum and Dad for a while, the countryside looked spectacular. We stopped in the village of Aldworth and took a look in the Church of St. Mary's. Parts of this church go back to 1200 AD and the Yew tree in the churchyard is said to be at least one thousand years old! Inside are the famous, 'Aldworth Giants', these are huge stone effigies of the De La Beche family from the fourteenth century.Although they were badly damaged in Cromwell's time in the seventeent century, they are still remarkable figures. Well worth a look if you are ever in the Aldworth area.
