St Saviour's Church at Stydd
St Saviour’s is a small chapel situated in the hamlet of Stydd just outside Ribchester. It is a remnant of a Knights Templar establishment. The chapel is a simple rectangular shaped building, dating back to the mid 12th century and dedicated to St Saviour. It was beautiful to see in the early morning sunlight and an extremely peaceful place and feel about it, we couldn’t go inside as it was locked, but as it was in a huge field with a working farm at the rear it could be difficult to keep an eye on it, and sadly that is a fact of life these days.
