St Peter's Church

St Peter’s Church stands at the heart of Great Haseley, surrounded by a churchyard with open views towards the Chilterns. The parish church dates from around 1200, and its architecture brings together features from the medieval period through to later additions. Inside and out, it is notably substantial for a small village, with a tower, aisles and stained glass that reward a slow look. Its central position makes it a natural stop while exploring Great Haseley on foot. On screen, the church’s distinctive village setting makes it an effective parish landmark. Its best-known Midsomer role is the church of Badger’s Drift in Midsomer Rhapsody; it also appears in Dark Autumn and Vixen’s Run.

The church gives the village a clear centre and a sense of continuity, which translates naturally into Midsomer’s fictional communities. Pair a look at the churchyard with a walk through Great Haseley’s quiet lanes and nearby countryside. Visitor access can vary, so read the information below before setting out.
