[edit] The church of Saint Andrew

The local church has sculptures of the four saintly fathers of the Latin Church, St Augustine, St Ambrose, St Gregory and St Jerome, all modelled by James Redfern.

They were originally intended for the northern porch of Bristol Cathedral but were thought too "papist" by the Dean and rejected. They were rescued by George Edmund Street.[1]

[edit] Manor Farm

There is a deserted village near East Heslerton which is open to the public all year. Visitors can see the remains set in ridge and furrow fields.[2]
