A picture of Upwood

St Peter's, Upwood

Upwood is a large village, not too far fron Bury and Ramsey to the east and the Raveleys off to the south. Those making the walk from Bury to Upwood will find it a tad on the busy side with a main road and RAF Upwood to the side of it. The area around the church is beautiful with a pub and some large old houses close by, the lot being surrounded by trees. There was mention of a church here in the Domesday Survey of 1086, and it is thought that a church has existed on this site since Saxon times. Inside, the chancel arch dates back to 1100 whilst two arches in the North Arcade date from 1150. The West window is 13th Century whilst the South door is known, confusingly, as the West door!! Named such after a charitable lady with the surname West. The Lady Chapel was restored in memory of those in the locality who lost their lives in the Two World Wars. There is also one name remembered who lost his life in the Korean war.
