Find a church

A famous Anglo Saxon church with additions, All Saints stands in a large churchyard on the edge of the village, from which it is approached through a fine 20th century lychgate.

A Grade I listed former Augustinian Priory built in 1170, one of the few remaining monastic churches in Leicestershire.

Originally built by the Champaine family in the 12th century.

Grade II listed Baptist church building erected in the 1830s Georgian period, hosting a large tracker action organ and the William Carey museum.

St Mary's was built almost entirely in the early 14th century, at the same time as Sir John de Broughton was building the adjacent castle.

The long history of St Mary's opened a new chapter during the construction of Rutland Water when it became linked with the neighbouring church of St Matthew.

St Mary's is set in a part of Leicester where the city's medieval past can still be imagined: here are the castle mound and the castle walls, approached from the south via a castle gateway.
