St Mary's Church, Itchen Stoke

 St Marys Church, 

                                            Date: March   
                                           Location:  Hampshire
                                           Abandoned or Public : public 
                                           Delmoished: NO

When we entered this church, I was amazed at the stained glass and how pretty it looked inside. Even though the church was pretty small, it was still a very interesting little place. 


I learned that this church was built in 1866, but it was actually the third one to be built as the previous two had been demolished years before. The church is an Anglican church and is also Grade 2 listed.

This was are second attempt trying the church, the first time we arrived late and it was closed, when we arrived took we went in and had a look at the church ( it also has power) thanks to the key holder showing us how to open the door as we got confused on it, The church inside was very pretty and it was so cute to see the original features as well as old photographs of the church.


So it said that this little church, back dates to around the 14th century and has not been touched for over 600 years - everything inside is all its original feature. it also said that this church was an old Anglican redundant church too.

 St Marys Church 


 Date:  April
Location: Higham 
Public or Abandoned: public 
Demolished: No  


I was scrolling through Facebook and I saw someone had posted up about this church on a local group, with a quick Google I found the church, I was surprised that we had more disused churches in the local area as I only knew of the one, so we headed out on a little adventure to the church, once we got there it was nice and quiet, and very peaceful with the sun shining on this nice spring day, once inside was taken away by how beautiful the church was. spent a good hour taking photos of the church and taking in the beauty of it, as we left the church we did see some horse riders too.



So it said that St Marys's Church is a grade 1 listed church, and is a redundant Anglican church,  is also said that this church was built in the Saxon area.
