Let The Air Out About This Wedding

St. Bridget's in Beckermet is not to near out from the modern village (which is now offering another church, St. John's, in the centre belonging to the village). Another ancient site, St. Bridget's has two pre-Norman cross shafts outside, carved with scrolls and runes.

Okay, so there were some benefits to getting up early.
