St Nicholas Church, Little Bowden

Reviewed By 195Jaffacat - Peterborough, United Kingdom

For those that like to visit Churches this is a must see in the village on the outskirts of Market Harborough C 13 century it has great character and is cared for with well kept grounds and the fabric of the building shows this to good effect. The church organ is grand and many events take place. It also has a lady in charge of the proceedings.

St Mary's Church

The Parish Church, is the oldest building in Hinckley and Grade 2* listed. It has stood on this site for nine hundred years. Now open every day, serving coffee, tea and cakes, this historic church is worth a visit. The tower and spire can be seen for miles and inside there is a 17th century town chest, memorials to local people and some spectacular stained glass windows. Guide Book Available.

St Mary's Church is a lovely communal place to spend time with the family, while also learning more about the church. They have toilets, toys, books and a little café. Lovely to be able to pop in, plus the home made cakes are delicious.

Church of St. Mary de Castro

Reviewed By robinwG8486ZN - Leicester, United Kingdom

This is one of the historical churches of Leicester situated within Leicester Castle the oldest part of the city and most interesting for anyone who loves English history. The church itself is Anglo Catholic and it is full of beautiful things worthy of any cathedral both services and concerts take place here take your time exploring this magnificent building. Also visit St Nicholas Church nearby perched near the Jewry Wall once part of a Roman Bathhouse and the church is a must visit for anyone interested in Richard 111.Highly recommended..

St Nicholas Church

Reviewed By nataliehF1833SA

This little church is so beautiful. Over a thousand years of history in one small building. Everything from the Anglo-Saxon windows to the centuries of additions since that time is just beautiful. I must also give a special mention to the older gentleman who was so friendly and lovely to my kids, who showed them the bell-ropes and who played on the organ for them. He was a wonderful man and I am grateful for his time.

St Hardulphs Church

Reviewed By johnfred4 - Preston, United Kingdom

Situated high on the hill behind the village, the church is well worth a visit. Plenty of parking space at the top of the steep, narrow lane. Lots of history going back to the Iron Age explained on information paddles inside the church. Well displayed 8th century Saxon carvings showing leaves, geometric patterns, men on horseback and an angel. Nice stained glass windows. Uninterrupted far ranging views all round from outside.
