 Worth: 
Picturesque village set amidst orchards and fields, with central
conservation area arranged around a pretty duck pond which formerly
marked the end of a navigable creek. Many fine period houses including
Barton House which graces the front of the area ordnance survey map. The
historic church of St Peter and St Paul has Norman origins, unusual
wooden shingles on the tower and a roof reminiscent of an upturned
boat which supposedly is where the design originated. There are two
popular pubs with restaurants, including the award winning St Crispin Inn,
a village shop, farm shop, and garden centre. A playing field at the
crossroads provides child play apparatus and frequently hosts cricket matches and village events in the summer.
Cycles can be hired from Chilton Stores. |
