St Lawrence Church, Bovingdon
Although there has been a church here since the 13th century, St Lawrence did not become a separate parish until 1833. The church was entirely rebuilt in 1845 with the exception of the lower part of the walls of the west tower. Among earlier memorials that have survived is the effigy of a knight in full armour of about 1400 lying on a tomb-chest, several 17th century floor slabs in the chancel and brasses of the same period.
Among these old brasses are some commemorating the Mayne family of Bovingdon, including one Henry Mayne, a local land owner, who died here in 1604. It was his grandson, Simon Mayne 1612-61 of Dinton who was a judge at the trial of King Charles I in 1649 and signrd his death warrant. Simon died in the Tower of London twelve years later Image His story is told at http://books.google.co.uk/books?id=2_ZstVBZSfIC&lpg=PP1&pg=PA33#v=onepage&q=&f=true
