Ruan Minor Church
Ruan Minor originated as a chapelry of Ruan Major but by the end of the middle ages, it had developed into a parish in its own right. The present church is mainly 15th Century but the earliest parts of the church may be from the 13th Century. The blocks of serpentine used in its construction are so large that there are only six courses from the ground to the roof. The font and piscina in the church are thought to date from the 12th or 13th Century when a previous building stood on the site. A wooden panel from 1677 painted with the ten commandments was found in a cottage near the church.
