Knebworth - Church of St Mary and St Thomas

The Church of St Mary and St Thomas set in beautiful surroundings and entered by a beautiful lych-gate. The nave, chancel and tower are 15th century as are the plain benches and the font. In the low Norman chancel is a blocked Norman window. The 18th century pulpit has carved Flemish panels. The Lytton Chapel was added at the beginning of the 18th century to contain lavish monuments to the family who lived in Knebworth House for over four centuries. There are three marble tombs, as well as other memorials and brasses. The names of Strode and Robinson appearing in the chapel are all part of the Lytton family.
