Architecture & HistoryOriginally a medieval chapel served the community of Aston Magna but after falling into disrepair during the mid 1600's, it was abandoned. A replacement place of worship, The Church of St John The Evangelist, was established in 1843. Commissioned entirely at his own expense by John Thomas Freeman-Mitford, the 2nd Baron Redesdale of Batsford Park. It was something of a ground breaking design of its time, the construction reflecting the style of earlier Norman churches rather than the more customary early Victorian styles. Eventually, The Old Church as it became known was de-consecrated in 1979, gaining listed status in Aug 1983, with its conversion to a residential family home taking place in the early 90's. During this period, it served as a commercial studio space used to build sets for the Dr Who TV series along with other BBC shows. And now, this unique and imposing building sits very much in the family home category with just over 2800 sq. ft of internal floor
