St Peter's, Ashby Parva

St Peter's church at Ashby Parva can be a slightly elusive building, hidden as it is amongst the dense foliage of its leafy churchyard (and thus rather difficult to get an external impression of). It consists of a square west tower, an aisleless nave lit by large three-light windows and a chancel rebuilt by the Victorians.

 

The interior has most of its medieval features aside from the unusually well preserved stairway to the (long vanished) rood-loft on the north side.

 

An inviting sign on the door attests to the fact the church is normally open and welcoming to visitors.
