St Arilda's Church, Oldbury on the Hill, Badminton, Gloucestershire

Details

Accessibility

"Access is via a long bridle path from the lane or adjacent Manor Farm - through a turnstile and across an uneven churchyard with no path to the north door. There are four steps down to the flag stoned porch."

Brief description

"A church that time forgot.

This atmospheric church is dedicated to a little-known, pre-Norman saint, who is thought to have lived near Thornbury.

The simple interior is little changed since the eighteenth century with its box pews, a two-decker pulpit and reading desk suggesting that time has passed this building by."
