Eaton Bray, St Mary the Virgin Church

Travel Information and nearby accommodation

The church was begun about 1200 under the patronage of the local baron of Eitone (Eaton), William de Cantelou, using stone from nearby Totternhoe. The exterior has been much altered since Cantelou's time, with 15th century, with Perpendicular style windows and a squat tower. Much of this later remodeling can be attributed to Reginald de Bray, a confidant of Henry VII. It was Bray who is said to have placed Richard III's crown upon Henry's head after the Battle of Bosworth. more details ...
