St George's Church, Edworth

The church structure combines cobblestones, ironstone, and limestone materials with ashlar dressings and features a two-bay nave with north and south aisles.

Built around 1200, the church belonged to St Neots Priory during medieval times, with aisles added near 1320 and the tower constructed in mid-14th century.

The interior contains medieval stained glass fragments, a 12th-century pillar piscina, and 15th-century pews decorated with carved lions and bears motifs.

The building remains open to visitors daily from 10 AM to 4 PM without modern amenities such as electricity, heating, or restroom facilities.

The church tower holds three bells, including one cast by John Kebyll in 1480, which stands as the oldest bell in the collection.
