St Nicholas Church, Harpenden, Medieval church in Harpenden, England.
St Nicholas Church stands at Church Green with a prominent tower containing eight bells and features detailed stonework throughout its structure.
The church originated in 1217 as a Chapel-of-Ease, underwent major reconstruction in 1861, and received Grade II* listed status for its architectural merit.
The church maintains three separate congregations through its main building and two daughter churches, offering different styles of religious services.
Daily religious services occur except Mondays, while the church hall hosts community groups including Scouts, Guides, and a Fairtrade café.
The church holds the ashes of British comedian Eric Morecambe and serves as the final resting place for scientist Joseph Henry Gilbert.
