This image shows the unique cottages that are now the village of Nuneham Courtenay. The village was relocated in the 18th century on the instructions of the 1st Earl of Harcourt who thought the existing medieval cottages spoiled the view from his new house and landscaped park.

The village church was also replaced by the 1st Earl of Harcourt. It was replaced by All Saints Old Church built in the style of a classical green domed Palladian temple on a site overlooking the Thames. Inside there are 17th and 18th century Italian fittings introduced in the 1880s, and effigies and busts of the Harcourts. The church is now in the care of the Churches Conservation Trust.

A new All Saints Church was built for the parish during 1872–74 by Edward Vernon Harcourt MP in the Early English Gothic Revival style. The new church was closer to the relocated village. In the 1970s the 'new' All Saints Church building was declared redundant. Image cannot be loaded
