South Luffenham is a small village to the south of Rutland Water, seperated from North Luffenham by the River Chater. The characterful church was built soon after the Norman Conquest, making it significantly older than many of the other churches in the area, and it is rumoured that there are tunnels connecting it to the nearby stream. The churchyard is dense with trees, and extends further than can be seen from the road.
