Sat on top of West Wycombe hill next to the Dashwood family mausoleum, St Lawrence's Church is a plain on the outside, except of course the glided golden ball that sits atop its tower. The interior however is lovely, stunning painting and fabulous painted ceiling. I don't believe it is open all the time but I know they do tea and cake on a Sunday afternoon. Worth going to visit.
2. St. Michael and All Angels
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 13 reviews
St. Michael and All Angels sits as an enclave within the picturesque National Trust estate of Hughenden Park. The church is closely associated with the Victorian prime minister Benjamin Disraeli whose tomb lies within its grounds. There is also a memorial to him inside the church, given by Queen Victoria. St. Michael and All Angels is open every day during the hours of daylight.
