St Andrew's church in Prestwold Park, Leicestershire
"St Andrew's church stands close to Prestwold House. The tower and chancel have survived from medieval times. The nave was rebuilt by the Packe family in 1743 and the interior was fairly typical of eighteenth century churches, with box pews, a west gallery and a pulpit in the middle of the nave on the north wall. By the mid-nineteenth century such interiors had become seriously unfashionable so, when the church was further restored in 1890, the nave furnishings were replaced."
