St Mary, Rickmansworth
The tower dates from 1630, but the church itself consists of aisles of 1825 by W. Atkinson between which Arthur Blomfield added a new nave and chancel in 1890-91. The east window is a large Burne-Jones crucifixion by Morris and Co. It is shared with the Methodists under a Local Ecumenical Partnership.

St Etheldreda, Old Hatfield
Just outside the walls of Hatfield House and Palace. Large but aisleless nave (David Brandon 1872) but substantial transepts and chancel chapels. Fine Burne-Jones glass in one transept and a war memorial window by Christopher Whall in the nave and many monuments to the Salisburys in their private chapel.
