St Blasius Church, Shanklin

A lovely church with so much history to discover

This is a delightful small church on the edge of Old Shanklin. Set in its graveyard, it is surrounded by parkland and trees. The building dates from the C12th and was originally the manorial chapel ...

Worth a stop

Pretty little church with easy parking next to small duck pond and picnic area - shame it was locked but worth a peak - lovely grounds

Nice little church

Its a bit of a steep walk up to the church. It is a nice little church. There are quite a few very old head stones in the crematory

An old church...

... like any other but the only one named after St Blasius (that I know of) in the UK. Complete with cemetery and bell in the wooden `gatehouse`. Walk up the hill behind the churchyard for great views...

Beautiful Church

Visited to see the architecture and the position of the church. Beautiful old place. In the Old Village of Shanklin next to the Big Mead and duck pond.
