The old church of Shenley, well north and below the village. It is now a private house, although most of the graveyard is now a large cemetery. It was made redundant in 1972. It is part of a larger 15th century building, rebuilt after a fire in 1753. Some of the glass was moved to the current church in the village. Nicholas Hawksmoor’s tomb is inaccessible in the private part of the churchyard.
