Queniborough, The Village And St Mary's Church c.1955
Photo ref:
Q12001
More about this scene
Although Queniborough is virtually a part of the outer edge of suburban Leicester, this photograph presents an almost chocolate-box view of the village. The thatched cruck cottage, with its museum-piece petrol pump and the amazing interlocking of roofs, lead the eye inexorably to the needle-like spire, which crowns the pink granite tower of the church. Internally, the building lacks any quality monuments, apart from a brass plate commemorating Margaret Bury, who died in 1633. In the early 1980s, vestry and complimentary rooms were built into the west end of the church.
