More about this scene
Probably dating back to a chapel-of-ease on the site in the 14th century, St Michael and All Angels is a striking landmark visible from most of the town. Built primarily of local stone (not the hardest of materials), a belt-and-braces parish council authorised the use of facing bricks to repair the top of the tower. There appears to be now record of when the work was carried out. The church is unusual in that it does not have a graveyard. This is because it was originally a daughter church to Campion, a mile or so to the south-west, and Shefford would have buried its dead there.
