A picture of Stow in Lindsey

St. Mary's Church, Stow, Lincolnshire. This church is one of the largest and oldest parish churches in England. It is partly Saxon and partly Norman in construction, but its size hasn\'t altered since Saxon times. It dates back to at least 1034, and perhaps as early as 975. The original church was re-founded and re-endowed in 1054 as a cathedral, with a bishop at its head. After the Norman Conquest in 1066, the cathedral at Stow was abandoned, and a brand new cathedral was built at Lincoln to replace it. After being deserted for over 20 years, Bishop Remigius of Lincoln refounded the church at Stow as an abbey in 1091. The monks left five years later, and St. Mary's became a parish church.
