Brief description
One of the larger parish churches in the Wigmore district of north Herefordshire. It is built partly within, and partly on the Vallum of the Roman settlement of Bravonium. The foundations are Saxon and Norman but the main part of the church is 13th and 14th century.
The Lady Chapel (formerly Mortimer Chapel) was built by Roger de Mortimer in order for the masses to be said. These were offered for his and his wife's soul and also those of his mistress, Queen Isabella, and her husband Edward II. The church contains fine early 15th century oak choir stalls, benches and misericords which came from Wigmore Abbey after the dissolution of the monasteries.
