Church of St Nicholas, Norton, Medieval church in Norton, Letchworth Garden City, England
The Church of St Nicholas features walls of flint and ironstone rubble, Welsh slate roofing, and a three-stage tower with crenellated parapet.
The current church structure dates from 1109 to 1119, with the tower added in the 15th century and chancel rebuilt in Perpendicular style around 1814.
The church contains an early 14th-century octagonal font with tracery decoration, a 17th-century pulpit with canopy, and 15th-century wooden benches.
Located on Church Lane in Norton, the Grade II listed building maintains regular services and welcomes visitors interested in historical architecture.
The church served as a stopping point for medieval pilgrims traveling to St Albans Abbey, with papal indulgences granted for visits during Marian feasts.
