St Peter’s Church in Llancillo is tucked into the Herefordshire border with Wales. During a post-lockdown deep clean this summer, an order of service from July 1944 “in time of war”, was discovered, that included prayers for the wounded and the fallen, for peace and for victory.
Llancillo Church is a Grade II* – listed, former church in Herefordshire, near the Welsh border.
Situated amongst trees and fields, it was dedicated to Saint Peter. The church was built in the 11th century and has been revised and restored since, including a Victorian restoration in the 1890s.
It contains a font from the 13th century and 17th century pulpit. One of the bells is believed to have been cast in the 13th century or earlier.
