- The listing says it would benefit from renovation.

## Summary

Church Cottage in Turville, Buckinghamshire, which appeared in the opening credits of The Vicar of Dibley, is going to auction with bids starting at £375,000. Its link to the sitcom, which starred Dawn French as vicar Geraldine Granger, may attract fans and buyers interested in a well-known piece of British television history.

The Grade II-listed, 17th-century timber-frame cottage is next to the property used to represent Geraldine’s home, and filming of her front door mostly took place from Church Cottage. The three-bedroom house has a garden and parking, but the sales listing says it would benefit from further renovation. The auction is scheduled for 12 November; the sitcom originally ran from 1994 to 2000 and has since returned for specials.
