Lying about six miles south east of Warwick and was traditionally an agricultural community. Still visible today are two old water pumps in the village which have enjoyed much use over the years, one of the pumps was made by Joseph Evans and Sons of Wolverhampton who we think started manufacturing water pumps around the 1760’s. Such is the architectural importance of the village that most of it today is deemed a Conservation Area. The parish church of St Lawrence built of stone in the late 13th century style of architecture but was rebuilt in the 18th century with a stone tower replacing the old wooden belfry. Since the 16th century the tower was known to have had three bells with a fourth added later, a refurbishment in 2006 saw two more bells added. The church is also known for the fact that connected to the church are a row of 17th century cottages. Today Lighthorne remains much as it once did, surrounded by the rolling Warwickshire countryside providing an idyllic retreat for both resident and visitor alike.
