English: Holy Trinity Church, Wistanstow The village takes its name from the Saxon St. Wistan who was grandson of the king of Mercia. He was murdered by a jealous cousin. The Saxon suffix stow means (enclosed) place.
The present church building, Holy Trinity, was mainly built between 1180 and 1200. The nave roof of 1630 is one the church's finest features and was re-gilded in the mid-1960's. The interior is also graced by a number of early 19th century box pews and fine mid-20th century wooden panelling behind the altar. (Source - Wikipedia: http://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Wistanstow ).
