St Michael the Archangel's Church, Booton, Gothic Revival church in Booton, England
The grey flint church features twin west towers set diagonally, a central pinnacle, and limestone details across its exterior walls and buttresses.
Reverend Whitwell Elwin, rector from 1849 to 1900, designed and funded this Victorian church without formal architectural training to replace an earlier structure.
The wooden angels supporting the hammerbeam roof, carved by James Minns, represent the faces of several local women from the Booton community.
The church stands one mile east of Booton village, with vehicle parking available in a lane adjacent to the building entrance.
The west doorway incorporates elements from Glastonbury Abbey, while the trefoil window above the chancel arch reflects patterns from Lichfield Cathedral.
