Summary

[edit]
Description
English: St Mary the Virgin, Weston Turville This church is well away from the village and is surrounded on three sides with open fields and it is interesting to note that nearby Wendover parish church is on the outer edge of the town, Drayton Beauchamp Parish Church only has the Old Rectory for company, and Stoke Mandeville's old parish church (now demolished) was in a wood completely surrounded by fields. It makes one wonder if all four places have moved their centres since the churches were built in medieval times. The church itself was constructed in the 13th and 14th century, with a 15th century tower, although the Norman font points to an earlier date for a church on the site. It was restored in 1860 and is a Grade I Listed Building https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1118358 . The “A Church Near You” web site page for the church includes a good collection of intenal and external pictures http://www.achurchnearyou.com/weston-turville-st-mary-the-virgin/ but without explanatory text.
