Church of St Mary Magdalene, Winsford, Medieval church in Winsford, England
The Church of St Mary Magdalene features a 90-foot tower constructed in three stages and contains six bells within its stone walls.
The religious structure originated after the Battle of Hastings in 1066, with elements like the Norman font and rounded arch stone doorway still present today.
The church houses a painted panel from 1609 during King James I reign, along with Jacobean craftwork in the pulpit and communion rails.
The church maintains regular services and welcomes visitors to explore its architectural features, including the thirteenth-century ironwork on the inner doors.
The church contains an Elizabethan chalice inscribed 'Wynsford 1574', preserved as a historical artifact rather than used for its original purpose.
