Parish of Shillington and Gravenhurst
Benefice Shillington, Stondon and Gravenhurst is just within Bedfordshire but with a Hertfordshire postcode.
All Saints’ Church, Shillington is a Grade 1 listed building dating mainly from the late 14th century.

There is a wealth of treasures in the form of brasses, stained glass windows, a peal of five bells and an extensive collection of graffiti.
The church is open every day for visitors.
There is a display in the Lady Chapel of photographs of the weather damage to the South Clerestory Wall and Windows - a project to be commenced as soon as funds are confirmed.
