All Saints Church, Spelsbury, near Chipping Norton, is notable for the monuments in the chancel to the Earls of Litchfield and their successors at Ditchley Park, the Viscounts Dillon. These make a fine cross section of English funerary art from Jacobean to Victorian times, with especially good Georgian examples of national importance. These were extensively restored in 2010/11.
Sadly the chancel slate roof is now leaking badly as the Stonesfield slates are delaminating and slipping. The PCC is appealing for funds to repair this. Is the church eligible to apply for a grant from the PF Charitable Trust?
