St. Michael & All Angels, Aston Clinton
St. Michael’s sits in the heart of Aston Clinton, a village that is growing as much of the Aylesbury area is. It is clearly signposted off the road through the village and it is refreshing to find a church with such a clear and welcoming sign.
Here is a picture of the exterior.
Inside it was warm and welcoming. There are some of the Oxford Diocesan leaflets on Prayer and Pilgrimage. There was also a simple guide, which is very well produced, and various other leaflets. The visitors book is well used which is always a good sign. There is also a ‘children’s corner’
There is a book for prayers as well as a prayer box but these could do with be labelled as it is not obvious how to use these if needed. There is also a votive stand for candles to be lit.
A lovely, welcoming church on a cold day in November – often not the best time to visit churches. The church website is at http://www.ac-buck-db-churches.org/ and this clearly says that the church is open each day.
It would have been in interesting to have some information on the grave yard, can one access burial records at the church or elsewhere, is there a cost. A couple from Australia were looking for relatives from the 1800’s last weekend and found nothing,
Please note – St. Michael’s website is now http://www.ac-buck-db-churches.org
Thank you for letting me know. I have updated the entry. Nigel
Thank you, Nigel, but you need a space between “org” and “and”, please.
