Upton Cressett Hall

The village is notable as the location of three Grade I listed buildings, St Michael's church[1] Upton Cressett Hall[2] and the Gatehouse of the Hall.[3]

St Michael's church is now redundant and in the care of the Churches Conservation Trust. The Gatehouse of the hall has been renovated as a luxury country house hotel.

Near to the church and hall is the site of an abandoned medieval settlement.
