The manor of **Stydd** is in the county of [Lancashire](/source/Lancashire). It is situated on the north eastern edge of the village of [Ribchester](/source/Ribchester). It has three notable buildings: St Saviour's Church, a set of almshouses[1] and the Church of Saint Peter and Saint Paul.

## Notable buildings

[St Saviour's Church](/source/St_Saviour's_Church%2C_Stydd). The Church's founding is obscure but it was well established by the time of the [Knights Templar](/source/Knights_Templar) or [Knights Hospitaller](/source/Knights_Hospitaller) with whom it is most closely associated. The Church is joined with Saint Wilfrid's in Ribchester and is open for worship during the summer. A detailed history has been written by Sir Peter Openshaw and can be found on the Saint Wilfrid's church web site.

[Ribchester Almshouse](/source/Ribchester_Almshouse) stands near the entrance to Saint Peter and Paul's Church. Built by the Shireburn family in the 1728 they were built to house poor people of the parish.[2][3][4]

The [Roman Catholic](/source/Roman_Catholic) Church of Saint Peter and Saint Paul's is an early 'barn church' built to look like a [barn](/source/Barn) to disguise its true purpose.
