About St Mary's Church, Welford
Religion, Churches, Interesting Places, Other Churches
St Mary's Church is an Anglican Church and the parish church of Welford. It is a Grade II* listed building and stands on the east side of the junction of Church Lane and West Street.
There was presumably a church at Welford by 1086, when the Domesday Book records the presence of a priest there, although it does not mention a church building as such.
The main structure of the present building was erected in the 13th to 15th centuries. In 1872, it was restored and the north aisle rebuilt by E F Law. The church now consists of a nave, north and south aisles, chancel and west tower. A detailed description appears on the Historic England website.
