Britain's What's On Event Guide
Eye Parish Church of Saint Peter and Saint Paul
Heritage Open Day: This beautiful Church is one of the grandest in Suffolk, not only on the outside, but also with regards to the treasures within. The great flint-encrusted tower was rebuilt in the second half of the 15th century and took over 40 years to build. This is a premier church in a county of fine churches. The 101ft tower, with its array of elaborate flushwork, grand stone parapet, and noble polygonal buttresses is a masterpiece of c.1450-88, displaying John De La Pole’s arms, as does the two-storeyed south porch, which has superb 15th century stone carving. The south doorway has Early English dog-tooth and stiff-leaf carving and is 200 years older.
