Places of Interest
- Culbone
Culbone church, dedicated to St Beuno, is reputed to be the smallest parish church in England. It has Saxon parts and there are many legends surrounding its ancient history. The cottages, formerly part of the Lovelace estate based at Ashley Combe, are in the style of Voysey. Its chief charm is its setting - deep in a shady, wooded combe on the side of the Bristol Channel - and was inspiration for Coleridge's Kubla Khan.
