The original parish church of Broadway, the Church of St Eadburgha has been a Christian place of worship since the 12th century. The current church was built circa 1400 but there are elements that remain of the original 12th century building. The dedication of a Christian church to Eadburgha is not common. Eadburgha was the grand-daughter of Alfred the Great. As a child Eadburgha was asked to choose between receiving jewels or her own Bible, she chose the Bible.
