Building:

Ruins of earlier church (Arches) in the grounds of Parish Church of St. Peter Ad Vincula

Description:

Late C12 fragments only, round headed arches and a few pier bases.

 

The material of the old medieval church was scattered far and wide; many stones found their way to Boothen Mill, where they were used to line the waterway to the millpond. Following their discovery they were returned to the church yard and erected by the architect Charles Lynam in 1887 (1881?) as a reconstruction of the nave's south arcade. 

 

The pier base of the earlier church can be seen through the arch
