ullard church and high cross

A 12th century romanesque church consisting of a nave and chancel. The doorway has been much tampered with (possibly in the 16th century when the innermost order of the doorway was constructed). Over the window above the doorway is a sculptured panel showing the meeting of two people-it may have formed part of the original doorway, as at Freshford. Note the worn heads above the doorway; one is said to represent St. Moling, the founder of the church, and the other is said to be St. Fiacre. The chancel also bears some Romanesque features, but was partially blocked up (in the 16th century?). An interesting feature is the vault under the chancel, which was necessary to keep the chancel on the same level as the nave, as the church is built on the slope of a hill. The north wall of the chancel was widened in the 15th century and a staircase built into the thickness of the wall. Behind the church, at the corner of the handball alley, there is a granite High Cross with scenes representing the Crucifixion, David with his harp, Adam and Eve, the Sacrifice of Isaac, six Apostles, and , on the back, perhaps the Temptation of St.
