During the storm on Saturday afternoon (27th August 2016 ) Bouthrop Church, also know as St Michael and St Martin’s Church, was struck by lightning.
These photos, kindly supplied by Brian Souter, Eastleach Resident, show the damage to the Tower Roof, and the flashing below.

After seven years as a design director, living in Paris and working for the luxury fashion house Louis Vuitton, I decided to return to London and continue my career heading up footwear design at Burberry. I would travel up to the Cotswolds every weekend where I rented a house in Burford. Eventually the commute got the better of me and I decided to move here full time. Initially I bought a house in Moreton-in-Marsh but then four years later I discovered Eastleach, the hidden bygone village lost in time! My partner and I were lucky enough to move to the village, the place we now call home.
A beautiful frosty meadow scene, to be found in the lovely Cotswolds village of Eastleach, in the heart of the beutiful county of Gloucestershire
I saw this fabulous photo on the internet, and the owner Marion Radband kindly gave permission to post it.
