It's Warmington, Northamptonshire.

Found via an old copy of Arthur Mee's Northamptonshire.

Brilliant work!  It's such a nice looking church as well.  Thanks very much Sugarbakers.  Amazing that it was built between 1180 and 1280..an incredible age.

Many thanks again and welcome to the Honour Board!  ;D

Very good!   :)

I'm learning an awful lot about church architecture - different types of spire, what the windows in the spires are called.  But will I remember it?   :-\

Me too!  It appears every specific feature has a unique name.  Personally, "window", "door" and "tower" works for me!  ;D ;D

Thanks, Caz ... it looked local, so I had to keep searching.  ;D
