 St John the Baptist, Whitwick, Leicestershire
(Click on an image for a larger version)
The parish church of St. John the Baptist is an ancient structure, nestling in a natural amphitheatre, close to the confluence of two streams. A spring, emanating from under the chancel, is also discharged into the watercourse, through a piped outlet protruding from a stone wall at the east end of the churchyard. The church we see today is mainly of 14th-century construction, with only the south doorway seeming to go back to the 13th century.
