Brixworth church in Northamptonshire is said to date from 675AD, which makes it the second oldest church in England. But there is substantial evidence to suggest that it is much older, and started life as a Roman basilica. The main arches are typically Roman, and the centre of the photo shows where a Saxon window has actually been cut into the top of what I believe is a Roman arch.
