Britain's What's On Event Guide
St Oswald's Church
Heritage Open Day: Historic Church open The Church is normally locked apart for times of worship. This weekend the Church will be open with information available detailing the history of the building. The first church on the site was built soon after 1100AD and much of it remains. The tower, the west and east walls of the nave belong to this period. It was enlarged in 1472 by the building of the north and south aisles.
There are symbols of the Percy family carved into pillars, Kilburn Mouseman furniture and a plaque recording the death in 1893 of a member of the Fawkes family. He went down with HMS Victoria which sank during naval exercises off the coast of Tripoli.
