This church was built by William Marshall in 1784, when the Norman church that stood on the site was almost completely demolished. Only the chancel, built in 1328 over a crypt of 1120, remains of the earlier church. Marshall’s impressive domed tower, which has huge Ionic pilasters, is unique in the Cotswolds. Later changes to the church include the new nave and north aisle built between 1875 and 1890 by Sir Thomas Jackson and FE Howard’s 1928 painting on the chancel roof.
