St Mary's Church, Silchester

Highlight • Religious Site

The Church of England parish church of St Mary the Virgin is just within the walls of the former Roman town [Calleva Atrebatum], possibly on the site of a Roman temple.

The building may contain some re-used Roman materials. The building dates from the late 12th or early 13th century. [...]

Calleva originated during the Iron Age and became the centre of the kingfom of the Atrebates. After Roman invasion in 43AD, the town was enlarged. It thrived throughout Roman rule, but, upon their departure, the town was slowly abandoned.

Today, the site is managed by English Heritage. You can visit the crumbling Roman walls and amphitheatre. Entrance is free.

Idyllic church on the corner of Beech Hill Road and Grazeley Road on National Cycle Network Route 23 (sustrans.org.uk/find-a-route-on-the-national-cycle-network/route-23/) - thanks to the imposing trees at the corner of the road this is a perfect spot for a bit of rest in the shade on warm Summer days.
