Calke Abbey
Why not combine a trip to my studio at the Ferrers Centre with a visit to Calke Abbey? The Ferrers Centre is only around 5 minutes from the exit of the Calke Abbey estate by car. On leaving the Calke Abbey estate, turn right at the first junction signed "Exit All Routes", at the second Junction turn right, direction "Smisby" and then, after half a mile, beyond the dip in the road, take the first left to the Staunton Harold Estate. |
Breedon on the Hill
The priory church of Saint Mary and Saint Hardulph stands high atop Breedon on the Hill. A couple of miles from Staunton Harold and well worth a visit. Founded in 676, the church houses Saxon carvings, including The Breedon Angel, a beautiful depiction in stone of the Archangel Michael. |
