A Medieval Church where John Wesley Preached
This isolated Medieval church is set on a small hillock a few minutes walk away from the Aylesbury to Bicester road.
Surrounded by trees, in the middle of fields, it consists only of nave, chancel and porch. The village it served has long since disappeared, although Methodist founder John Wesley preached here soon after he was ordained, and the church was restored by Sir G Gilbert Scott in 1868.
The church was built in the 12th and 13th centuries, probably on the site of an earlier church - there is a quaint Norman font, a beautiful chancel arch rebuilt in the 14th century, and a fine 15th century queen-post roof over the nave.
