Quarrendon Village & ST.Peters Church Ruins

Lost History of Aylesbury

Lost history of Aylesbury as many of us have heard over the last year or so that to the north of Aylesbury are the ruings of the old St. Peter's church now to many people theses are just bits of old stone and can't see the point in worrying about them.
But they mean more to us than just bits of old stone its part of our history and without history we will forget about the ways things use to be all thoses years ago.
The ruings that are to the north of Aylesbury are the only ruing we have in the Aylesbury area they are as old or even older than st.Mary's church in the town its self and that has been about since the 17 century so you could emagine how old they are it would be a very big shame if they were to be built over and forgoten but now I believe the local council are going to protect them, But we shell see.
As you walk across the fields to the ruins you will see the earth works of Quarrendon village that was the seen of a battle during the civil war with cromwell after that the font that was in the church was moved to Aylesbury is the same one that is in St.Mary's church in the town.
But the church is not the ony thing you have to take into account with this as the land around the ruings are also very alive with wildlife
Here is just one of the lovely sites you can see fall of life in the summer this is teamming with nature from birds to Nutes and frogs aslo fox's and deer in the surrounding area.
Toady when I was taking theses photographs I saw a lovely fox witch made me feel really good as its not often we see sites like this living in the town but if you have the opertunity to have a walk over to the ruings then go for it as in the summer month it is well worth the trip being able to see the hairs running away from you.


Here is another beautiful site as there are so many of them around here it is unbelievable lets hope we get to see more of them.



This dramactic picture was taken just where the Quarrendon Village use to stand.










The vedio is from a mobil phone so the picture quality is not that good but it give you an idea of the area by the ruings witch are only about 150 yards from this spot.
