Roof of Church of St Lawrence, Sheepwash
A relatively modern church in a traditional style. All the wood work and windows in the Arts and Craft style
“The Church of St Lawrence in Sheepwash is the third to have been built on the same site since the 14th century: the second incarnation erected after the collapse of the original edifice was destroyed by fire. A notice engraved in stone near the entrance reveals that the present church was rebuilt in 1880. This was at a cost of £1600 borne by the then lord of the manor, Lord Clinton, or Charles Henry Rolle Hepburn-Stuart-Forbes-Trefusis, 20th Baron Clinton to his friends. The pinnacled tower was completed in 1889 at a further cost of £300.”
