the church is an Architectural Treasure being the first in England if not Europe to be built in the "Reformed Norman" style. Set in the countryside on the edge of the railway town of Wolverton it offers a haven of peace and tranquility.and views across the river Ouse
Church of the Holy Trinity still sits next to the Norman Motte and Bailey site. Only the earth mound remains of the Norman castle, though the Saxon tower still stands as central to the rebuilt church, clad in the early nineteenth century 'Anglo-Norman' style. Next door to the Church is the old Vicarage, built in 1729; the front door has stonework from the previous house (1500s) including the de Longueville family coat of arms, and pieces from the earlier church building.
