Britain's What's On Event Guide
St Peters Church Marefair
Heritage Open Day: Come and see the church at the centre of Northampton's historic quarter. Next to The Churches Conservation Trust's Old Black Lion pub.
Including Ride and Stride, Guided Local heritage walks and a bellringing demonstration! St Peter's stands in a pretty grass churchyard in Northampton town centre, beside the buried remains of a Saxon palace. This 900-year-old Norman church is filled with glorious carved treasures. Inside, great Norman arches of plain and banded stone rise and flow with zig-zag waves.
They are supported by beautiful carved capitals, each overflowing with foliage, scrollwork, birds and beasts -- look for the man being swallowed by (or emerging from) a monster.
