[Former] St Mary's church - Brentingby, Leicestershire, UK - Anglican and Episcopal Churches on Waymarking.com

The former St Mary's Church, Brentingby, now a house, with the tower at the far end.

"St Mary's Church is a redundant Anglican church in the village of Brentingby, Leicestershire, England. Much of the body of the church has been demolished and converted into a private house, leaving the tower standing. The tower is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade II listed building, and is under the care of the Churches Conservation Trust.

The church was built in the 14th century, and remodelled in 1660. The remodelling consisted of shortening the east end and building a new east wall, replacing the nave windows, rebuilding the roof to give it a steeper pitch, and blocking the north door. The church was declared redundant in the 1950s, following which its condition deteriorated. In 1972–73 a trial excavation was undertaken. In 1977 the body of the church was partly demolished and converted into a house."
