Preston Candover - Church of St Mary the Virgin

When Blomfield built the new Church of St Mary the Virgin, (Churches Conservation Trust) in 1884-85, the old church was demolished apart from the chancel and only this rather charming survival remains. A lancet window shows its foundation about 1190, but few medieval parts survived a fire in 1681. There are some medieval files, traces of 18th century wall paintings and a large number of memorials from several centuries.
