The church has seen some hard times since its 12th century inception. In the English Civil War cannon fire left holes in the east wall Image and more recently it was damaged by a fire on 26 September 2006 http://www.sjbnet.org.uk/architecture_04.html since restored. Then in September 2010 homophobic graffiti was scrawled on it http://www.gazetteandherald.co.uk/news/8367165.Graffiti_attack_on_Devizes_church/ The clock, by the way, is accurate.
