All Saints Church, Bisham (Bisham)

United Kingdom / England / Marlow / Bisham

This church sits on the Thames riverbank. The huge chunky Norman tower dates from around 1175. The rest of the building largely dates from the Victorian restoration of 1849. This southern chapel is known as the "Hoby Chapel" - an obvious name in light of the fact that it is filled to overflowing with a spectacular collection of monuments to Hoby family, who lived at the adjoining manor of Bisham Abbey. The northern Williams chapel features a Tudor monument brought from Anglesey for Owen Williams of Temple House (built on the site of the Templar mills) who died in 1832.
