Saddleworth Church from Wharmton Hill.

Saddleworth Church from Wharmton Hill.
The Parish church of St Chadds in Uppermill has always looked most attractive standing well outside the village high up the valley. The bells still toll regularly here and I see the building often as a very nice eating pub (The Church Inn) stands in the church square seen here to the right of the church itself. This Georgian building was built c1830 but a church has sat at this site since 1215 AD.
Another chance to see the lines of our dry-stone walls too, so typical of this area.

Enjoy the day in peace. Herb

Thank you, Herb!
Yes, I'm aware pubs need to be restaurants these days just to survive but when I go back to Cornwall (sadly 4 years ago was the last time and this year will be out as well) I like the local pubs there, some of which still seem to be traditional pubs and some still manage to do so even without becoming a restaurant. How they do it I have no idea! Mind you, it's only the inland and out of the tourist zone pubs that do this, and it's true that many have closed down seemingly forever. I can't think of a single coastal pub that isn't now first and formost a restaurant. My two favourite pubs, The Gurnard's Head and The Tinner's Arms, both in Zennor are good restaurants but fortunately have retained a trad pub atmos too!

I haven't come across another pub named The Church Inn Herb. Quite unusual I would think. The surrounding countryside is beautiful and I bet it changes with the seasons.
A beautifully captured shot.
Cheers, Rosa.
