The Parish Church of St Mary dominates the North side of the Market Square in the centre of Atherstone.
On the left of the tower is the huge Victorian nave rising over 18 metres above the ground and in front of the nave is the South Aisle. To the right of the tower is the much repaired 14th Century chancel.
The clock face was moved from the NE aspect of the tower to the South face when the present road was driven through between the church and the Market square.
