St Faith's Church, Gaywood

St. Faith's Church lies in the heart of Gaywood, which was not part of King's Lynn until 1937. The tower is a fine local example of early brickwork although no one is quite sure of its date and the whole church was built of brick. Come in through the ancient 12th-century doorway to find two huge amazingly detailed oil paintings of Queen Elizabeth I and the defeat of the Armada and the discovery of the Gunpowder Plot: Parliament meeting above and the gunpowder and the Devil below! There are beautifully carved oak furnishings from the early 20th century and some much older woodwork as well.

Please note, the church will be open for Sunday Service at 0945 and then open to the public from 1115.
