Definitely a pretty one at Crupies today - just a pity it too was locked, as I'd have loved to have seen inside.

Love those romanesque churches, often in really tranquil spots and so peaceful inside (when you can get in) ^_^
Got a piccy off web.

Ha, thanks. Looks like it's been extensively & nicely restored. The one at Comps is fantastic, and I did get in there last summer. If you're on Facebook, I put some photos there:

Talking to a former churchwarden it seems that the during the ownership of the Gibbs family the south aisle continued as the family Roman Catholic chapel, possibly screened by a curtain from the adjacent nave. The church continues as the High Church end of the benefice.
