Small remains of an ancient church in a lovely position by the sea . Interesting grave stones many sadly lost their inscriptions so we can no longer read about the deceased people within but the grave yard is beautifully maintained with lots of flowers . It's a peaceful and lovely place to end up .well done to all the locals taking care of this special place

St. Germain's is a beautiful relic of the past, with the spire of the old church still standing. It's a key identifier of Marske that you can see whilst walking along the beach. There are benches along the edge of the churchyard where you can sit and watch the sunset.
