Padbury: The Church of St Mary the Virgin
The nave and chancel date from the 13th century as did the original tower which was however rebuilt in the 17th century. The structure is a Grade II* Listed Building.
The apparent flaw in the photograph is actually an emission from a boiler flue!
This contribution shows how cartographic demands can lead to inaccuracies in mapping. The location of the symbol for the church on the Ordnance Survey 1:50,000 scale mapping plots at least 50 metres away from the actual physical centre of the church on the ground.

Padbury: Farm track
This track is shown on the Ordnance Survey map of 1880, and seems to have existed only to afford access to the fields from Padbury village.

Padbury: The Church of St Mary the Virgin
This is a repeat of Rob's Image from more or less the same angle but on a somewhat gloomier day.
The naming of this church seems to have a curious history. Old Ordnance Survey maps of the Victorian era and up to 1923 call it St Matthew's, yet the 1927 History of the County of Buckingham refers to it as The Church of The Nativity of The Blessed Virgin. By 1977 the Ordnance Survey are calling it St Mary's Church, but by 1983 they had retired from the fray and called it just PW (Place of Worship).

Padbury Church
Tucked away up a little lane (Church Lane unsurprisingly) from the centre of Padbury is this charming little church.
