ChurchesHardwick has a grade I listed church[3] (which is famous locally for its ruined tower {{Citation needed|date=July 2009}} and is one of 124 existing round-tower churches in Norfolk), as well as several farms and a substantial amount of housing. It was also home to a Royal Air Force airfield, which was used by the United States Army Air Forces during World War II. St Mary's Church, Shelton, was built in the 1480s of red brick with dark diapering. Apart from the tower which is earlier than the rest of the church it is in the pure Perpendicular style. The stained class windows include large figures of donors in 15th-century dress. Features of interest include the monument of Sir Robert Houghton, 1623, and the carved royal arms of King William III.[4] There are also tombs of the Shelton family of Shelton Hall. The church is Grade I listed.[5] Notes1. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.south-norfolk.gov.uk/democracy/shelton_parish.asp|title=Shelton & Hardwick parish information|publisher=South Norfolk Council|date=4 January 2006|accessdate=20 June 2009|deadurl=yes|archiveurl=http://webarchive.nationalarchives.gov.uk/20110927004911/http%3A//www.south%2Dnorfolk.gov.uk/democracy/shelton_parish.asp|archivedate=27 September 2011|df=}} {{oscoor gbx|TM223900}}2. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.neighbourhood.statistics.gov.uk/dissemination/LeadKeyFigures.do?a=7&b=11128392&c=NR15+2AB&d=16&e=62&g=6450461&i=1001x1003x1032x1004&m=0&r=0&s=1441649116807&enc=1|title=Civil Parish population 2011|accessdate=7 September 2015}} 3. ^Church of St Margaret, Shelton and Hardwick; British Listed Buildings 4. ^Betjeman, J.
