The church of St Laurence in Foxton is part of the Four Church Benifice, a group of village churches in south Cambridgeshire which also includes All Saints, Shepreth, St Mary’s, Fowlmere and St George’s, Thriplow.
St Laurence’s is a Grade I listed building, and occupies a site to the south of the High Street near the centre of the village. Parts of the building date back to the 13th century, although a church has stood on the site for more than 1,000 years. The tower houses five bells, which can be rung or chimed, and an electrically driven clock strikes the hours.
In 1973, Rowland Parker wrote a short history and guide to St Laurence’s. It was revised in 1983 and provides lots of detail on the history, architecture and features of the church:
