Description

The Church of St Mary the Virgin is situated in front of the remains of a Norman motte and bailey castle, strategically placed in the hilltop village of Culworth with its wide views of the surrounding countryside and alongside the ancient trackway known as the Welsh Way.  The churchyard is one of the prettiest in Northamptonshire.
