    A beautiful spot to stop and enjoy peace and quiet in Brambridge near the garden centre and river.

    Peaceful site of the original medieval church, with gravestones but no building above ground level, although the walls are made out by lines of gravel. Otterbourne village migrated to the Main Road where a new church was built in the 19th century with the support of the novelist Charlotte Yonge.

    Not a destination, but if you stumble across this (as I did) during a country walk then an interesting reminder of past times.
