Venue Hire
The Church of Saint Mary the Virgin and All Saints forms a significant part of the village of Fotheringhay’s history and heritage.
The Parochial Church Council (PCC) has a responsibility for promoting the use of the church by the village and wider community and also of maintaining it for the use and enjoyment of future generations.
The building lends itself to a variety of uses over and above its function as an amazing place in which to worship and to celebrate significant life events such as weddings, baptisms and hold commemorative services.
The building has in the past been available for concerts, recitals and lectures and has been used as a venue to record choral, organ and orchestral music and for television and film documentaries.
The Churchwardens, in consultation the vicar, are available to discuss the suitability of the building for use as a venue.

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.”
