What a beautiful church. I am so surprised to see such a high church in deepest south Shropshire. I know a slightly different version of that story, but the outcome is the same.
Interesting video Dan.......I learned things about the place I didn't know. I actually filmed there about 20 years ago as part of my Secrets of south Shropshire video, which can see on RUclips. I had a rather strange experience whilst filming there.....call it paranormal if you like but I tend to be rather agnostic about such things. A couple were looking around the church when I got there but left about 10 minutes after I began filming. Shortly after they left there came some very loud banging noises from what I thought was the tower. I ignored it for a while but the noise, which sounded like a door or a shutter being continuously slammed shut persisted. I walked around the church, both inside and outside and there was no one to be seen. I walked up the path and mine was the only car at the roadside. I walked back down the path and it was a beautiful summers day and there wasn't even a leaf blowing in the trees . I went back inside the church and resumed filming and sure enough the banging started again. I have no idea to this day what caused it but I decided that caution was the better part of velour and packed my gear away and left.
Thank you Roy, as you may know I very much enjoy the excellent series of videos you made and would recommend them to anyone. I have mentioned them a couple of times on TRc videos. That sounds like a pretty unsettling experience. Like yourself I don’t have a firm belief in these things other than it seems likely that there a things going on outside the range of our five senses which have yet to be recorded by “science”. As someone who’s solitary visited a fair amount of Churches I haven’t noticed much activity but then I’m pre occupied with filming etc, however the one exception was at Hodnet church , when filming a Holy Grail Quest film, which was in itself pretty odd. Thanks for the great story. It adds to the lore of the place and our TRc video 👍
Not everyone dares fly the flag these days, First-rate content there😅 an ancient and interesting place, and nice research as well, one for my list when i get on the road again
Great video Dan lovely south Shropshire tfs 👍
Thank you Phil! 👍

It’s a real gem! Yes there are definitely variations of that story around 🧐
