Holy Cross tower

Holy Cross church, in the Cambridgeshire village of Stuntney, was rebuilt in 1876 on the site of a much earlier Norman church. All that now remains of the Norman church are three stone door arches, and the 12th century font, which were incorporated into the rebuilt church.

Stuntney derives its name from the Saxon for 'steep island', and back in those days it was an island in the midst of long gone fens and marshlands.
