Ayot St Peter Church Open Day

Join us on Saturday 14th September for an oppotunity to explore Ayot St Peter Church, an exceptionally complete and beautifully preserved Victorian Arts and Crafts church of 1875 by J. P. Seddon. The church features mosiacs by Jesse Rust, the only church installation by Martin Brothers Pottery ("Martinware") and a fine painted ceiling in the apse. The church is described in the Simon Jenkins book 'England's Thousand Best Churches' (1999) and the latest edition of Pevsner.
This year we will have a small exhibition of items relating to the railway station that once existed in our village.
