URPoint Details
As its name suggests this is a tiny village, with an even tinier Norman church.
There was a Roman military station here at an important crossing of the River Trent by ford and it was from here that King Harold and the Saxon army crossed the Trent in 1066 on their way to Hastings to stop the Norman invasion.
