Tucked away in a wooded corner on the edge of East Garston, All Saints is a pretty and well cared for church.
East Garston, Berkshire
It dates from the 12th century, with 14th century additions, and it was extensively restored in 1876.
The church has a painted timber ceiling, and is especially notable for work by Victorian artist Nathaniel Westlake. He was most well known for his stained glass, but at East Garston he also painted the reredos, and, in the nave, a Tree of Jesse.
East Shefford, Berkshire
Alabaster nobles and wall paintings in a rural idyll.
Lambourn, Berkshire
Lambourn's large and imposing church dates from about 1180, although there may well have been a church here since at least the time of King Alfred.
Wickham, Berkshire
Prepare yourself for surprises when you go into this church, from the outside nothing looks untoward, except that the tower is clearly Saxon, and the whole of the rest of the building is obviously very much later.
