Britain's What's On Event Guide
St Mary's Church, Rushden
Heritage Open Day: As you approach St Mary, you will see its 172ft tower and spire. The oak pulpit is one of only 35 of these 14th century pulpits left in England. Its strainer arch is also remarkable. This feature and similar structures at Finedon and Canterbury and Wells cathedrals are the only examples of this form of architecture known in England. There will be tours of the church and Church Records on view, i.e. Baptism, Marriages and Deaths. In the morning there will also be escorted trips
