St Mary's has a charming, somewhat Scandinavian, appearance with it's brightly coloured exterior and cosy wooden interior. It is located outside the railway village of Melton Constable in an idyllic rural landscape. In the lovely churchyard there is a medieval church tower - the only remains of the previous church - and Commonwealth war graves.
