Just outside the town of Newport, St Olave's is a beautiful little village church.  Many people visit us following the fictitious tale of Lucy Lightfoot, a tall tale devised by the then Rector, Rev James Evans, to entertain the tourists. But no matter what some people may claim, neither hers nor any ghost can be seen to haunt the churchyard - the church is simply a place of worship and peace!
