Britain's finest Baroque Church. St.
Michael and All Angels Church, Great Witley, A443 Worcester - Tenbury Wells road, 10
miles north-west of Worcester. As the parish church
for the villages of Great Witley and Little Witley it is used regularly for services
and concerts. The church is open to visitors daily. The church, now almost
fully restored, displays a splendour which is unique amongst country churches in Britain,
with exquisite gilded decorations throughout, numerous paintings by Antonio Bellucci, ten
painted glass windows depicting scenes from the New Testament, highly decorative carving
and a large monument by Rysbrack. It also has a fine organ, its case being from the
instrument on which Handel played. Many musicians consider its
acoustics for music to be as fine as any building of its size outside London
