Here is the parish church of St. Mary Magdalene in Stretton Sugwas, which houses two fantastic medieval features inside; a tympanum from c.1150 and incised slab from 1473. The timber-framed bell tower is at the northwest end of the building, and it reminds me of the bell tower at St. Bartholomew parish church in Holmer. The church here was built on a new site from 1877-80 by William Chick, and the medieval church was demolished at this time. The parish church was grade II* listed in January 1967.
