Kings Sutton, Inside SS Peter & Paul's Church


Sadly the church did not match up to its outer glory inside and we were left with a sense of anticlimax... The church is large and spacious, but much of the original detail has been restored into dullness (such as the blind Norman arcading in the chancel). We did note the astonishingly gruesome memorial in the chancel to Thomas Freke d.1769 - a skeleton with a gaping hole in its ribcage.

Back outside however, we liked the snoozing dragon atop the corner buttress of the east end of the south aisle.
