St Peters Church, Milton Keynes

St Peters Church is situated in the new Stanton Low Country Park, near Great Linford, Milton Keynes. The church, dating from c. 1150, served the vanished village of Stanton Low, and was in occasional use in the early 20th century, but the roof collapsed in 1956 and the building is now a sad ruin.
There is a preservation society – see St Peters group
The site can be awkward for the non-local to find. There is a roadway leading from the main road that goes past it: find the Black Horse pub, and follow the roadway immediately to the east of the canal. This roadway is single-track and there is nowhere to park or pass, so it is not advised to drive down it unless you really have to. A short distance further east, another roadway leads to the Hanson Centre, which has parking and a shorter footpath to the church. The church itself is surrounded by a fence and entry is discouraged.
