Escape to Banham! Enjoy its zoo, countryside and gardens.

St Mary's church - tower and porch. St Mary's church > 1408886 - 1408907 as we see it today was mainly built during the 14th century. It is a large church with a square tower that is topped by a lead-covered spire. St Mary's was extensively restored by the then Rector, the Revd J.G. Fardell, in the late 19th century and the furnishings and stained glass windows as well as the ornate font cover date from this time. The nave roof > 1408947 has massive barn-like timbers, tie-beams and kingposts which all appear to be original as is the C14 octagonal font > 1408954. Another survival is the so-called Bardolph Effigy > 1408950 - a knight in armour who rests in a recess built into the north nave wall. Unusually, the statue is of carved oak, painted black presumably in the 19th century in order to resemble stone. According to tradition it depicts Sir Hugh Bardolph who was Lord of Greys Manor in the 12th century. The east window contains glass made by J.R. Clayton in 1857 > 1408914 while he was working with Powell & Sons of London. The north aisle east window > 1408916 is by the same stained glass artist and was made to designs by Henry Holiday. The glass on the south wall > 1408935 believed to be the rarest of the church, is thought to date from the 16th century, a time from which very little remains. 17th century Flemish glass > 1408932 can be found in one of the nave north windows and one of the north chancel windows were made by the well-known London glass maker C.E. Kempe > 1408930.

The village centre is quite compact, with its main hub around the church and the village green. You'll find a few local shops, a traditional pub, and the village hall here. It's a pleasant area for a stroll and gives you a real sense of local life.

Families visiting Banham will find staying in or very close to the village centre ideal. The main draw for families is the Banham Zoological Gardens, which is just on the outskirts of the village.
