St Mary’s Parish Church, the only medieval building in Cheltenham, is also noteworthy for its outstanding windows, especially the beautiful rose window on the east side of the north transept. Other attractions include quirky tombstone inscriptions and the preaching cross in the churchyard, which was apparently used by John Wesley, one of the first leaders of the Methodist movement. The church was restored in 1859-61 by D J Humphries and again in 1875-7 by Ewan Christian.
