St Nicholas' Church, Ettington Park, Ettington - Stratford-on-Avon
The chapel of St Nicholas was built in the C13 to service the village of Ettington some two miles away. However, the building was superceded by a better located church in 1798 and is now partially ruinous. It is the family mausoleum of the Shirley family. The church has suffered from natural erosion and other threats including birds nesting in the tower, structural decay of standing masonry and other issues associated with rainwater goods and cementitious repairs. Repair works on the south wall of nave and exclusion of birds from tower completed. Ongoing repair discussions
