The Church of St Michael and All Angels is a fine building situated on top of the hill in Harston with spectacular views of unspoilt, rolling countryside to the south. It’s origins date back to the Saxon era and contained inside are two unusual and intricately carved Saxon stones. A proportion of the present church was sympathetically rebuilt during the mid to late 19th Century.
