St James Churchyard

Memorials : 0
Location : Castle Bytham, South Kesteven District, England
Coordinate : 52.7537140, -0.5367360
Description : Founded about 1200, in Norman times, the church is unusual because the main entrance is on the north side rather than the traditional south. This is odd because in the Middle ages the north door was considered the "devil's door", and most churches blocked any north doorways to prevent the devil gaining entrance to the church. There are pieces of Saxon stonework suggesting that there was an earlier church on this site long before the Norman building was erected.
