St Mary's church has the privilege of nestling close to one the loveliest stretches of the River Thames.

St Mary The Virgin was built in 1762 on the site of a medieval place of worship and pilgrimage. Two headstones by Eric Gill can be found in the churchyard.

Standing in the market place, this is believed to be the third church built on the site. Built in the 13th century, the oldest part is the low tower which is surmounted by a small spirelet that is completely out of proportion with the rest of the building!

Close to the River Bain, a church has been on this site for about 900 years. Kirkby was mentioned in the Doomsday book in 1085, and it is quite certain that a church stood here in Saxon days. The present church of St Mary was built around 1802.

The Roman Catholic Church sought to tackle Manchester's deepest troubled area which lay between Deansgate and Albert Square. A church was built in 1794 in Mulberry Street on a site crowded in by intensive poor quality housing on land which had so recently been open meadow and grazing pasture.

Hainton is one of those rare places, a manor that has been in the possession of a single family for much of its recorded the history. The church stands in the grounds of the Hall, which was and still is the home of the Heneage family. The chancel and north chapel contain an unparalleled and virtually unbroken sequence of family monuments dating from the 15th century.

Eastling Church lies southeast of the main street in the centre of the village. The church is set back from the road and is surrounded by mature yew trees (one of which is more than 2,000 years old), with only the spire visible above them.

St Mary's Church, Portsea stands on the oldest church site on Portsea Island, Hampshire, England, with a history stretching back to the 11th century. Archaeological research indicates that there was a church here in 650, although 1170 is the earliest date in recorded history.

A jewel inspired by the chapel of French kings.

St Mary's is a beautiful church dating back to the 12th century. It is nestled in the green belt between the cities of Cardiff and Newport, in the centre of Marshfield village. Its rural character makes it a beautiful setting for weddings, baptisms and other celebrations.
