Studley Methodist Church

Set in quiet countryside close to the River Arrow, Studley's church has a history dating back to the 12th century, and parts of that original building can be seen in the north wall.

Built in 1867 the building is one of Frederick Preedy's more unusual and elaborately detailed designs and the plan and decoration of the chancel are particularly noteworthy.

It is believed that the present building has its origins in 12th century but there was probably an earlier Anglo Saxon or even Celtic church, for the boundary of the original churchyard forms an almost perfect circle, a feature shared with many churches of known Celtic origin.
