North Aston : St Mary The Virgin

A winding drive with spectacular views across the Cherwell valley leads to this small church, so close to the large house next to it as to seem almost joined. Most of the church is Decorated of the 14th century but it has been much altered, particularly in the 19th-century restoration by Gilbert Scott. Next to the chancel is a fine alabaster tomb with effigies thought to be of John Anne and his wife, who lived in the manor in the late 15th century.
