Yeah, I wonder how chunky that sign is in relation to a modern st. sign? B/c right now it's looking mighty hard to get lost in Bullphan.

Despite the image most people have of essex, the white stillettos and xr3i drivers, there are some beautiful villages in the more rural parts and you dont have to stray too far off the beaten track to find some great village pubs.

it seems that there was a church at that time and it was almost certainly on the site of the present Aston St Mary’s, which was dedicated in 1505. Prior to this, in 1430 and 1490 Aston Church was referred to as “St. James”.

The Church is St Johns not St James. The local craftsman is Trevor Adams. Nice photo!

The church was not built to commemorate the victory but for The souls of those slain in the battle. see the Anglo-Saxon Chronicles.
