Aspley Guise

About our Parish

The origins of the church are thought to be Anglo-Saxon and there was certainty a church by 1223, when it is mentioned in the records of the diocese.

The substantial Perpendicular tower with dock, although restored in Victorian times, dates from somewhere between 1400 and 1650. It houses a set of six bells.

The oldest church monuments date from around the end of the fourteenth century. The tomb effigy in the North aisle is thought to be Sir William Tyrington, who was a guardian to the second Anselm de Guise and died in 1400.
