Cemeteries

This Church has/had a graveyard.

Note: any church within an urban environment may have had its graveyard closed after the Burial Act of 1853. Any new church built after that is unlikely to have had a graveyard at all.

Church History

This Place of Worship was founded in 1280, but we don't know whether or not it is still open.

The four bay arcades and font date from 1280. The nave & aisles were rebuilt in 1858 by T. Nicholson. [Source: The Old Parish Churches of Herefordshire, Salter, 1998, and The Buildings of Herefordshire, Pevsner, 1963]
