Mundham, St Peter
A neat little Norfolk church hiding a stunning Norman doorway. We’re commissioning full surveys of the bats and the church heritage to see how we can help here.
Nempnett Thrubwell, The Blessed Virgin Mary
The remote, peaceful church of The Blessed Virgin Mary houses a fine oak rood loft and screen separating the nave and the chancel, as well as a large maternity colony of soprano pipistrelles.
Netherseal, St Peter
Originally C13th with a C15th tower St Peter’s was rebuilt in the 1870s. A beautiful stained glass bat graces the St Francis window.
Newton Blossomville, St Nicholas
St Nicholas is home to a colony of pipistrelle bats that historically roost in the North Chapel.
North Piddle, St Michael and All Angels
The simple, peaceful church of St Michael and All Angels was originally built in 1289, but by the mid C19th the church had fallen into a poor state of repair. Rebuilding took place in 1876 by Henry Rowe of Worcester in the C14th Decorated style.
Old Hunstanton, St Mary the Virgin
Tucked away in a pictureqsue village outside the seaside town of Hunstanton. We’re helping organise fundraising events and providing advice on cleaning.
Old Weston, St Swithin’s
A 13th century church full of wall paintings. We’re commissioning full surveys of the bats and the church heritage to see how we can help.
Parson Drove, St John the Baptist
