St Faith’s, Little Witchingham
Open daily dawn to duskThis church building is managed by Churches Conservation Trust.
Outwardly this is a simple church, set in trees by a lane with fields and a handful of buildings nearby. Yet step inside St Faith's and your view of the medieval world changes. Wall paintings of vines laden with grapes spiral over arches and over the wall, edged with deep red. Others show scenes from the Bible, some ghostly, others brilliant , stretched across the north wall with a St Christopher at the west end and a St George and the Dragon at the east. This is an authentic medieval church - a riot of colour and pattern, with picture stories that could be read by a largely illiterate congregation. Under the care of the Churches Conservation Trust.Incorrect information? Update this entry
