Saint John the Evangelist Church, Oxborough

United Kingdom / England / Feltwell /

In 1948, the tower and spire of St. Johns collapsed onto the church below, destroying the south side of the nave. This was due to the weight of the bells, coupled with high winds. The south chapel contains a rare terracotta tomb, which remained undamaged in the collapse. This tomb is unique in England, and evidence of the Catholicism of the Bedingfeld family.
