Description
Once part of Normanton Estate, local residents fought to save ‘St Matthew’s Church’ from demolition when the reservoir was created in the 1970’s. Now deconsecrated and with a new floor level, Normanton Church has it’s own embankment making it a prominent feature on the water.
Understandably, it has become a stunning location for hosting civil weddings, offering options for your special day 7 days a week, all year round. You can hire the venue for corporate meetings and musical concerts . It is only open to the public during certain events, but you do not have to go inside to marvel at this beautiful building and its surroundings.
You can get a great view of the church with a cruise on the Rutland Belle from Whitwell, as the church is an optional departing point for passengers.
