Flowers Delivered to Teigh with Clare Florist

Teigh is a beautiful little village and civil parish nestled in the quaint and peaceful area known as Rutland. This delightful little vista has a rich and varied history and the few people that call it home strive to maintain the historical treasures that still reside here.

The most well known landmark of Teigh is the Holy Trinity Church. Originally build in the early 1300s and rebuilt in 1782, it has remained virtually untouched since. It is also one of the few churches in the world with pews that face each other rather than a centralized altar. This allows the parishioners to look at each other, and encourages the person leading the mass to walk among his flock rather than presiding above them.  It’s a unique design that isn’t seen in many other churches around the globe.

Teigh is also considered one of the Thankful Villages in England.  This name, coined in the 1930s by writer Arthur Mee, referred to any villages in England or Wales that did not suffer any casualties among the young men who left to fight in World War I. Mee’s list originally named 32 villages, including Teigh, though it was later expanded to include a total of 53 parishes.

48 people currently call Teigh home, according to the last census taken in 2001. The parish is also home to a B & B that is happy to take in all travelers, as well as a variety of small clubs and businesses.

Even the graveyard is filled with a fantastic history.  The main trader of the Muscovy Trading company is buried within its walls. Anthony Jenkinson was, at the time of his death, the head trader of the company and was striving to set up trade routes through Russia to reach as far as Persia. He died and was buried in Teigh in 1611.

The amazing history of this village is only eclipsed by the beauty of the fresh flowers that dot the landscape.
