The GENUKI church database is not a complete list of all churches, and for
many areas it just contains most parish churches at the start of the 19th century.
It is planned that over time many more churches will be added but until then we hope
that those it does find are useful.
The distances shown above are in most cases only approximate.This is because
the church locations themselves are given as the corner of nearest Km square on
the Ordnance Survey map in most cases. Some have been updated to the actual 1/10 Km
location, but the majority have not. So use the distances as a guide, not a precise figure.
The information provided has been obtained from a number of sources and although every
effort is made to avoid errors, just a few may be present. So if there are any please let
us know. [
].
In particular different sources describe churches in different ways and sometimes use different
place names. So if there do appear to be duplicates, again let us know. If there are any churches
missing then please tell us. The basic information that we need is:
Other useful information is the founding and closing dates of the church, a picture, if the
church has its own website, the name of the road on which it is/was sited, the records that
exist and which repository holds them etc.
Icons against the churches in the list above are provided to easily see which piece of information
is required. Click the individual icons in the list above to report it. The icons are:
Building up a complete picture requires local knowledge and if you have any such information
that you can share, then it will really help other users.
