History
St Mary's Church, Doddington is a Grade II* listed building. Historically, Doddington was one of the largest parishes in England. Under the Doddington Rectory Division (Amendment) Act 1856 (19 & 20 Vict. c. 1 Pr.) it was divided into seven rectories, Benwick, Doddington, Wimblington, March Old Town, March St Peter, March St John and March St Mary. Doddington Hall, a private house, replaced the old Rectory in 1872.
A clocktower was built in 1897 to commemorate the Diamond Jubilee of Queen Victoria, and is in the centre of the village.
