Built in the 12th/13th century this church is of historical and architectural importance. It has many medieval architectural features as well as stained glass from the William Morris workshops and a fine memorial by P Scheemakers. As well as being of significance to our heritage, Wheatfield church serves a rural and sometimes isolated community for whom the regular Sunday services are vital. It remains unique with its lack of electric light and the services by candlelight are magical and much loved.
