Testimonials
“Whilst on a countryside walk, we stepped into this lovely church and were so glad that we did. Although a working church, there is also space for a small museum and the story of the church.”
“Glancing at the details of the church building and monuments, you know you are in King Richard III country and a place with royal historic connections.”
“A fascinating, and very old, church with useful information on the history of Fotheringhay and Mary Queen of Scots.”
“An unusual church, having lost over half its length when it's collegiate function was taken away during the reformation. The remaining building is high and wide with the seating in box pews.”
