The church of St Bartholomew was built in 1667 and is located in the grounds of Benthall Hall.
Under the sundial you can see a lions head. At one time bees used to enter the lion’s mouth and go into a hive in the church. The honey was then given or sold to help the poor of the community. The bees have now moved to hives in other parts of the grounds.
