Medieval beauty...

St Michael's Parish Church
Aughton
Lancashire




The oldest parts of the church are Norman
built in the time of King Stephen 
in the 12th Century






This shows a blocked doorway which dates from Norman times


There is evidence to suggest that Christians have worshipped on this sacred site for 
well over a thousand years,


The church continues to gently slumber in the summer sunshine.
