I am not religious but do like old chuches and the history,this is a nice neat church,and if you got as far as Tissington worth a look round.Interests me...St Marys Church, Tissington Village
St Mary's church, Tissington dates back to Norman times- records show it was established by 1227 and probably built some time around 1100. The tower has walls about 4 feet thick at the base and one of the original windows may still be seen on the south side. The belfry contains 3 bells.

Certainly worth a look, beautiful feel to it. The inside keeps much of the original charm and woodwork while the nave is really pretty.

Worth spending 15 mins having a walk and this very old church. The font was particularly interesting having stone carvings around it. It is has a charming small altar.

This is a very impressive squat and robust Norman Church which appears to have been built more like a castle than a place of worship. The design of the church indicates the violent times in which the church was built.

Visited as a part of the Well Dressing.
Most attractive village forming a circular all village walk- of which the church in its elevated position is one of the major features.
Attractive churchyard but if church is open the Noah’s Ark window is rare- if not unique in its choice of subject.
