Church on Fordington Hill. Originally 12th Century church (but with an 11th Century doorway), with the tower added in the late 15h Century. Some rebuilding took place in 1833 but the biggest change happened in 1907 onwards when the church was tripled in size under local architect Jem Feacey with the lengthening of the nave and the addition of a chancel, as seen in the centre and right of this photo. Grade I listed - see https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1292171?section=official-list-entry.
