Eaton Socon

Bedfordshire

St Mary the Virgin


Parish Profile: The church originally consisted of a chancel, nave with north and south aisles and a west-facing tower. The walls of the church were built of cobblestones with a good deal of squared ironstone in the Tower, and all were finished with embattled parapets. To the north was a vestry dating from the 15th century, but later than the chancel. An organ transept was added in the latter part of the 19th century. The west window of the south aisle was of the 14th century style and was probably a copy of an older one. This church was burned down in 1930, but immediately rebuilt and consecrated in 1932.
