Question: Name that Church

[stonepicnicking_okapi]

Do any of my kind friends know where the church on the cover of this book is located in reality? I feel like I've seen it in British TV shows (Lewis, Midsomer Murders, maybe even Father Brown)

It looks like a typical village church.

[stonepicnicking_okapi]

Yes, I thought maybe it might be famous or something.

I'll have another look when I get home.

It looks like the same church from Father Brown. I tried reverse image searching it for you, but all I got was links to amazon and goodreads for this book.

Update: I looked up where they shot the Father Brown TV series, which is in Gloucestershire village of Blockley, so if it is the same church it would be located there

It does look remarkably like it. I don't know if it is exactly the same, though. I can't find a photo of the Blockley church that is from the angle of the book cover and there's a strange turret thing on top of the one on the book cover. But it does explain why I thought I've seen it before, so that's a comfort.

The turret isn't on top of the tower, although it looks that way. It's actually up the side and is called a stair turret.

Cool! I think I've done a couple of those when I was doing paper buildings.
