Barway church, 1934 (photo W M Palmer) (Cambridgeshire Collection)

St Nicholas, Barway

History of St Nicholas

Listed Building

Chapel of Ease to Soham minster Church, converted to a house in 1970s, retaining much of the fabric and original detail of the C14 nave and rebuilt C19 chancel. Clunch and Barnack limestone with steeply pitched roof of slate. (Historic England)


Barway suffered in the farming recession of the 1920s. In 1972 it was proposed that the tiny church, unused for the last ten years, be converted into a house.
