*************

King's Sutton is a village and civil parish in South Northamptonshire, England in the valley of the River Cherwell. The village is about 4 miles (6.4 km) south-east of Banbury, Oxfordshire.

The parish includes the hamlets of Astrop contiguous with eastern end of King's Sutton and Upper Astrop about 1 mile (1.6 km) north-east, in the same area as the shrunken villages of Great and Little Purston.

The oldest parts of the Church of England parish church of Saints Peter and Paul are the Norman font^[6] and largely Norman chancel. The north aisle was added in the 13th century and the south aisle early in the 14th century.^[6] The bell tower and most of the windows are Decorated Gothic. The spire was added to the tower probably late in the 14th century, raising the steeple to a height of 198 feet (60 m).^[8] Sir Nikolaus Pevsner considered it "one of the finest, if not the finest, spire in this county of spires".^[8] The south porch, north aisle, west window and very fine east window of the chancel are Perpendicular Gothic.^[8]

Ss. Peter & Paul parish is now part of a single Church of England benefice with the adjacent parish of Newbottle and Charlton.^[9]
