St Mary and All Saints Church, Whalley from Romans to Pre-Raphaelites
Heritage Open Day: Whalley is Grade I listed building. A fine example of early English Architecture.
Internally look for the Roman Altar, Stone from the Norman Church, Misericords and Chancel Roof.
There are Saxon Crosses and Stone Coffins in the Churchyard. The Heritage Open Day will focus on the evolving Architecture of the Church with structures and items from the Romans to today.
• The keystone of the North door bears a Roman inscription.
• The Saxon Church was referred to in the Domesday Book (1086).
• Some of that stonework from the Norman Church (which burnt down) remains in the columns around the South Door, the carved heads above the pillars on the North side of the Nave and the carving on the seat of the Sedilia.
