Description

At the south eastern tip of Leicestershire is the village of Great Easton set in the Welland valley and very close to the borders with Northamptonshire and Rutland. It is just south of the Eyebrook Reservoir. The earliest parts of the church date from the 13th century, and the structure probably replaced an earlier Norman church built on the site. It is built of ironstone with some grey limestone dressings. The churchyard is well-maintained, and has some mature trees along the perimeter.
