Brief description

"St Bartholomew’s dates from the 13th century and is of considerable architectural interest. The church is normally open from 9am until 6.30pm in summer – closing earlier in winter. If you visit our church, give yourself plenty of time to look round.

The Norman tub font is mid 12th century and is the sole remaining relic of the Norman Church which once stood on the site.

Beside the church, hidden by trees, is the motte where Mortimer’s Castle once stood. It is thought that the church tower could have been built from the stone that once formed the castle walls.

Inside the church are several beautifully carved tombs."

"A jewel amongst Herefordshire Churches. Contains several important monuments including the tomb of Blanch Mortimer, the Lady Grandison, youngest daughter of the infamous Roger Mortimer. The churchyard contains a famous yew tree."
