Braunston, in Rutland

Braunston-in-Rutland Braunston-in-Rutland is a village in Rutland, on the River Gwash some three miles south-west of the county town, Oakham and to the south of Rutland Water. A curious sculpted stone stands in the churchyard, at the west end of the church, close to the tower.
