St James the Great Church, Claydon

Highlight • Religious Site

Claydon, meaning clayey hill, is the most northerly parish in Oxfordshire. The small ironstone church stands at its highest point and consists of a chancel, nave, north aisle and north chapel, and a low west tower with a saddleback roof.

There are some lovely Romanesque features, such as the south nave doorway, much restored, and the nave and north aisle, separated by an arcade of three bays.

Chipping Warden is a Northamptonshire village with a rich history. On the River Cherwell, to the east, are the remains of a Roman villa, while just to the south of the village is an Iron Age hillfort, Arbury Banks.

The village sits on the Jurassic Way long-distance trail. Walkers in need of a pitstop will be delighted that there are two pubs: the Griffin and the Rose and Crown.

Church of St Peter and St Paul, Culworth

Highlight • Religious Site

In the Church of England parish church of St. Peter and St. Paul the north wall of the chancel contains two blocked-up Norman arches that suggest the building may date from about 1200.   The chancel contains a window that pre-dates 1300, but is probably not in its original position.

Other features from the Decorated Gothic period include the windows of the south aisle and the east window of a room to the north of the chancel.

The East window of the chancel, the only complete stained glass window, and the four-bay arcades between the nave and the north and south aisles are from the early part of the Perpendicular Gothic period.   The bell tower is also Perpendicular Gothic.

The pews are 18th century and are in raised tiers at the west end. Together with the stained glass window and the etched window in the tower (dedicated to those who served at the local wartime airfield), St Peter & St Paul’s makes a wonderful backdrop to any service, especially a wedding service.

The parish is now part of the Church of England benefice of Culworth with Sulgrave and Thorpe Mandeville and Chipping Warden with Edgcote and Moreton Pinkney.
