DescriptionSt Mary's church - view east - geograph.org.uk - 1337088.jpg |
English: St Mary's church - view east. St Mary's church > 1337060 - which at some time in the past was dedicated to St Peter - is situated about 2 kilometres from the centre of Burgh St Peter village, on the edge of Burgh Marshes > 1337013. All traces of a chapel that once adjoined it have disappeared. The church is believed to stand on an ancient site which has been used as a place of worship for at least 1000 years. The unusual pagoda-style tower > 1337079 serves as a mausoleum to members of the Boycott family, many of whom are buried in the sealed brick vaults at its base storey. Interestingly, the involvement of one of the Boycotts - Charles Cunningham Boycott (1832-1897) in the Irish 'troubles' in the mid 19th century resulted in the introduction to the English language of the word 'boycott'. Another unusual feature of this church is its great length > 1337107 which is further enhanced by chancel and nave being of the same height. The thatched roof dates from the 15th century but was restored after a fire in 1998. The north and south doorways date to around 1200. The octagonal font > 1337122 is C14 but both pulpit and rood screen > 1337098 are more recent. This church is open every day. |
