The village of Waterperry lies 7 miles (11 km) east of Oxford on the border with Buckinghamshire. Waterperry House is the former home of the Curson and Henley families, and the tiny Church of St. Mary the Virgin lies adjacent to it, representatives of both families lying in the grave-yard. Although the earliest reference to Waterperry is in Domesday in 1086, the church is not mentioned although its architecture suggests that a Church had been there since Saxon times. Among its points of interest are a fine Jacobean three-decker pulpit, box-pews and some interesting windows such as that shown.
