St Peter and St Paul's Church (Lavenham)

De St Peter en St Paul's Church is een beschermde parochiekerk van de Church of England in Lavenham in het Oost-Engelse Suffolk. Geschiedenis De bouwstijl van de kerk is late perpendicular gothic. Het is een zogenaamde "wolkerk" die door haar omvang en afwerking getuigt van de voorspoed die de streek in de 15e en 16e eeuw kende dankzij de lakennijverheid. Ze werd gebouwd in de periode 1485-1525 ter vervanging van een eerder kerkgebouw. Op grond van overeenkomsten met de St Mary the Great in Cambridge wordt vermoed dat het gaat om een ontwerp van de architect John Wastell. Het was een van de laatste kerken die vóór de Engelse Reformatie werden voltooid.

St Peter's Church, Letwell

St Peter's Church, Letwell, is a parish church of the Church of England in Letwell. Background The Church of St Peter is found at the west end of the village of Letwell, near Rotherham, in South Yorkshire. The church was built around 1375 by John Mauleverer, but has been substantially altered several times.

The church today consists of the 14th century tower with a Victorian nave and apse. It is Grade II* listed. 1867 fire The tower, along with the vestry are all that remain of the church following a fire which occurred in 1867. The fire was inadvertently started by one Harry Radley, who was sexton at the time. In response to complaints from the parishioners that they were too cold, he had over-stoked the coal-fired boiler which led to the fire. The church was re-built and decorated in its current form at the expense of Sir Thomas White, 2nd Baronet, the son of the famous soldier Sir Thomas White, 1st Baronet, of Tuxford and Wallingwells, who twice raised the Sherwood Rangers Yeomanry Cavalry at his own expense. Much of the decoration in the church was contributed by Sir Thomas' daughters. Organ The church is unusual as it still uses a harmonium instead of an organ. The harmonium, dating from the 19th century, was constructed by the Estey Organ Company of Brattleboro, Vermont. Churchyard The churchyard is a designated Grade III Botanical site. Current use It is part of the Diocese of Sheffield, now under the joint Benefice of St Martin, Firbeck, with St Peter, Letwell and St George, Woodsetts and holds worship every Sunday, alternating Matins and Evensong.
