The church isn't level inside! It's well worth popping in. The VE Day memorial is very well done and worth a closer look.

Grimes Bridge No 26 is a minor waterways place on the Oxford Canal (Northern Section - Main Line) between Stretton Stop (Rose Narrowboats) (6 furlongs to the east) and Wyken Arm Junction (Old Colliery Branch) (5 miles and ¼ furlongs to the west). The nearest place in the direction of Stretton Stop is Johnson's Bridge No 27; 1½ furlongs away. The nearest place in the direction of Wyken Arm Junction is Bridge No 25 (Ansty) (Motorway bridge over canal and railway.); 6¾ furlongs away. There is access (via steps) to the towpath here. Mooring here is tolerable (it's just about possible if really necessary). There is a bridge here which takes a minor road over the canal.
