There are lots of spectacular buildings across Leicestershire and Rutland, but none more so than Normanton Church in Rutland. Built in the 1830's it was due to be demolished to make way for the rising waters of Rutland Water, but in the end it was saved by filling the bottom third with concrete. It now stands in splendid isolation, partly submerged beneath the water. Which makes it the perfect places for holding a wedding as Ben found out.
