St Thomas
Butterton, Staffordshire
Village church built 1868-1870 by local landowner in the Gothic style on the site of a 13th century Knights Templar Chapel.
Keele, Staffordshire
A fine example of a Victorian Gothic church in the Decorated style of 14th century.
Listed Grade II*. Built of local stone and designed by local architect, Thomas Lewis, with a high-pitched roof over a nave with north and south aisles, a chancel, a side chapel and vestries.
An unlikely feature is the rare survival of a medieval stained glass window. There is a ring of six bells with an active team of ringers. Notably a close association with the Sneyd family of Keele Hall ( now the site of Keele University). The church stands at the heart and highest point of the former estate village of Keele and is surrounded by an attractive and well maintained churchyard.
