A quieter pause beside the Market Place / UPPINGHAM

St Peter and St Paul Church, Uppingham

Step inside the parish church when open to look at its layered architecture and the modern figures of its two patron saints. It gives the main square a different perspective from the shops and galleries. Keep the visit quiet and respect anyone attending worship or using the church for reflection.
