St George's Church, Edworth, Grade I listed church in Edworth, England.
St George's Church in Edworth is a Grade I listed church with English Gothic architecture constructed from cobblestones, ironstone, and limestone with dressed stone detailing. The building contains a two-bay nave with north and south aisles connected to a tower structure.
The church was built around 1200 and belonged to St Neots Priory during the medieval period. Its aisles were added near 1320 and the tower was constructed in the mid-14th century.
The interior displays fragments of medieval stained glass and carved wooden pews decorated with lions and bears from the 15th century. These details reveal the artistic craftsmanship that decorated the space for worshippers across centuries.
The church is open to visitors daily but lacks modern amenities including electricity, heating, or restroom facilities. Plan your visit with these limitations in mind and dress appropriately for the unheated interior.
The tower contains three bells, with one cast by John Kebyll in 1480 being the oldest in the collection. This bell is a rare example of medieval bell-casting craftsmanship that visitors often overlook when exploring the building.
