Background
History
The church was built in the 12th and 13th centuries with the tower being added in the 15th. In 1136 the church was given to Llanthony Priory by Robert de Bethune the Bishop of Hereford. The work around 1500 included the insertion of the lantern tower over the Crossing. The church underwent Victorian restoration by Frederick S. Waller in 1892.
Architecture
The cruciform limestone building has a stone slate roof. It consists of the nave with south porch, chancel, north and south transepts and a central tower. The three-stage tower has an octagonal staircase leading to the roof. There are two fonts, one from the late 17th century and the other Victorian. Among the other memorials are several to the Lawrence family of Whittington Court.
