Church of St Mary and St Andrew, Ridlington
W. G. Hoskins in 'A Shell Guide to Rutland' says of Ridlington: "It is a large and very ancient village.. Like many of the earliest villages it stands high upon a wind-swept ridge, with fine views, for the river valleys were still densely forested when the Old English moved in during the second half of the fifth century and the early sixth. Like the other early villages, too, Ridlington grew up around a central green, much of which still remains.
Though the present church is of no great interest, having been heavily restored in 1860, it stands upon an extremely ancient site. There can be little doubt that it was the mother-church for a large area around in the early days of Christianity in these parts (say c. 700)".
Ridlington has many buildings, including the church, in the attractive golden stone typical of Rutland and Northamptonshire.
