The little church of St John the Baptist in Tredington is known for its wooden tower, a twelfth-century architectural plan, medieval stone benches, and the fossil of an ichthyosaurus displayed upon the floor of its porch.[3] The steps, base and shaft of the churchyard cross are fourteenth century; the cross is modern.[4]
History
The village was a member of the Confraternity of Burton Lazars, a mediaeval order devoted to the care of lepers, near Melton Mowbray.[5] The father of the musician Thomas Tomkins was incumbent of the church from 1594 to 1609.[6]
In 1935 the parish of Tredington was merged with Stoke Orchard.[7]
Education
The village school opened in 1880,[8] and is located half way between Tredington and Stoke Orchard in order to serve both communities. Tredington Community Primary School, as it is now known, is a tiny school serving (at least) the villages of Tredington, Stoke Orchard, Elmstone-Hardwicke and Uckington. In 2005 it had 61 students aged 4–11.[9] Most children leaving this school move on to Cleeve School in Bishop's Cleeve, an establishment with a larger population (over 1000 pupils) than the villages served by Tredington School.
