EynesburyEynesbury is actually part of St Neots, with only a little stream separating the two. Note the 12th century Church of St Mary with its Norman tower. Rebuilt in the Early English period, it retains some well-preserved locally sculpted 14th century oak benches.History has touched the quiet lovEynesbury village of Eynesbury from time to time: it was the home of the famous giant James Toller, who died in 1818 and is buried in the middle aisle of the church. Only 21 when he died, he measured 8 feet and six inches tall - it is said he was buried here to escape the attention of body-snatchers, whose activities were widespread at the time. Eynesbury was also the birthplace of the Miles Quads, the first-ever surviving quadruplets in Britain. |
