SS Peter & Paul, Nether Heyford
The church of St Peter & St Paul at Nether Heyford is tucked away down a quiet lane and at first sight appears fairly modest by some standards with its simple squared-off tower and it's delightful caramel-coloured stonework.
The building is largely 14th century with later alterations and within is surprisingly spacious with an emphasis on width rather than height. The internal walls refreshingly retain their plaster, lightening the interior considerably (along with mostly clear-glazed windows). The most notable features here are the medieval Mauntell brass in the sanctuary and a fine mid-16th century wall monument to the Morgan family in the south aisle.
