St Luke's Church is a church in Tixover, Rutland. It is a Grade II* listed building. The church is close to the River Welland, now about 3/4 mile from the village of Tixover. The church consists of a nave, north and south aisles, chancel and tower. The tower dates from the early 12th century and has a bell inscribed Sancta Fides Ora Pro Nobis, which translates as "Holy Faith, pray for us" The nave and chancel are 13th century and the nave is unusually shorter than the chancel. It has slit windows of an unknown date, thought to be either 13th century or perhaps the Tudor period. The 13th-century north doorway is blocked and has a pointed arch. The north aisle roof is higher than the south aisle because the clerestory on the south side has three Victorian quatrefoil openings. The south porch dates to the 13th century. The pews have poppy head ends, the font dates to the 13th century and the pulpit, which is of Caen stone, dates to 1864. The original stone seats run along the chancel wall. At the southern end is the Dale monument, erected by Margaret Dale, the third wife of Roger Dale (died 1623), to commemorate her husband after he died.[7] It shows Margaret and Roger kneeling each end of a prayer desk with their kneeling daughters at the base. All their hands are missing and one head of the daughters is missing

Turning in to a gravel track at the end

A gorgeous village of stone houses and charming lanes surrounded by pleasant pastures and meadows, there's lots to like about Duddington. Its church and manor house are Grade II-listed, while its 15th-century bridge is also worth seeing. The village's pub, the Royal Oak, serves excellent food and has several en suite rooms too. The Jurassic Way long-distance trail passes through the village.

Nestled in the Welland Valley, Barrowden is an idyllic Rutland village. There is fantastic walking to the north around Rutland Water, while Wakerley Great Wood and Fineshade Wood both boast a network of trails to the southeast. Two long-distance trails pass through the village: the Jurassic Way and the Rutland Round. Walkers can find fuel and refreshment at the Exeter Arms.

There's much for outdoor lovers to enjoy in Fineshade Wood, with walking trails, family bike trails, running routes and kids' adventure trails. There's a visitor centre where you can find out more about the woodland. It's part of what was once Rockingham Forest, a vast royal hunting ground.

A historic ancient woodland, Wakerley Great Wood boasts an extensive network of unmarked trails to explore, picnic areas and information boards. Dogs are permitted on the trails but it is important to follow the principles of the countryside code. The Jurassic Way long-distance trail passes through the woodland.
