4x3 wickham church.jpg (32256 bytes) On a walk near Wickham Bishops we came across this old church.

It is the Old Church of St Peter and was made redundant in 1970.

It is now maintained by "The Friends of Friendless Churches"

It is used by an artist, Benjamin Finn, who works with stained glass and explained the architecture of the church to us and also showed us some of his work below
