St Michael's, Winwick

Winwick is a small village, a few miles to the east of Thrapston . St Michael stands on high ground and dominates the landscape. Some particularly impressive views of the church are to be seen from high ground about a mile to the south on the road to Old Weston. The was no church mentioned here in the Domesday survey of 1086 but the 12th century south doorway points to a stone church being around as far back as that time. The chancel, nave and south aisle were rebuilt in the middle of the 13th century, and the north arcade was formed and the aisle added about 1325. The chancel arch was rebuilt to the full width of the chancel in about 1340. The south transept was built in the early part of the 15th century, and the four stage, perpundicular, west tower towards the end of that century.
