Flempton

We passed Flempton village. Flempton takes its name from its founders who came from Flanders (Flemings) and settled the area in Anglo-Saxson times.

I think it's quite an attractive village, I saw many thatched houses around there! It was the first time to see so many thatched houses at one time! There was the village pub; the Greyhound. We were hungry but unfortunately it was closed at that time... That was a shame.





There is St Catherine's Church on the corner. Wooden gate was beautiful. Not only this church, but the churches are mostly kept locked recently. The graveyard was full with grass and wildflowers. It has become a nature reserve for local wild plants.
