Church of St Denys, Clipston Road, Kelmarsh - West Northamptonshire (UA)

C14 Church with C19 work by JK Colling. There is extensive cracking to the east end of the chancel, the east window and to the east and north elevations of the north aisle, however various repairs were undertaken in 2020. The interior shows further signs of movement with the Sir John Hanbury wall monument now open jointed. A few rainwater goods require maintenance, yet gutters have recently been repaired. The congregation are keen to effect further repairs, with funding required for the reinstatement of the east window and works to the longstanding cracks in the north chapel.
