The Parish Church of Saint John the Evangelist
The small village of Oxborough is situated in the Breckland district of West Norfolk. The parish church of St John the Evangelist sits in the centre of the village close to the medieval moted Oxborough Hall.
In 1948 the tower and spire of the church collapsed onto the church below in high winds, destroying the south side of the nave. The surviving chancel and Bedingfeld chapel, of 1496 and containing two rare terracotta tombs, were subsequently repaired to become the main church buildings. The nave and ailes of the original medieval church are now roofless and in ruins.
