Pitchford



This small church has herringbone masonry on the north side of the nave beneath some well laid rubble courses with a fine, but blocked Romanesque light in it.  There are large boulders built into the foundations of the structure.  The idea that this early church, as claimed by Wikipedia, 'was founded and built by Ralph de Pitchford in 1220 AD' is simply ludicrous.
