St Chad's Church, Holt
The earliest documented reference to St Chad's is in 1379 but it is thought that it was established around the 1280s. Additions were made to the church and it was remodelled in the late 15th century under the patronage of Sir William Stanley. During the Civil War it was damaged when it was occupied by Parliamentary forces, bullet marks are still present from that occupation. In 1732 the church was renovated, this included removal of the rood loft and screens. A further restoration was carried out between 1871 and 1873 on behalf of the Ecclesiastical Commissioners. Ewan Christian carried out the work on the chancel and John Douglas was responsible for the rest of the church. This included removal of the whitewash from the interior and adding vaulting under the tower. New oak screens were fitted between the chancel and the chapels, and the seating was replaced in the choir and the nave. Many memorials were removed and the window tracery was renewed. The bells were rehung in 1896, a weather vane was added to the tower in 1897, and the clock was replaced in 1902. In 1960 the heating and lighting were improved and in 1963 restoration work was carried out on the tower and the roof were re-covered.

Bullet Marks inside St Chad's Church, Holt
During the English Civil War hand to hand fighting took place inside St Chad's between defending Royalists and attacking Parliamentarians. This included the use of muskets, both pistol and rifle calibre. Musket balls which hit the church stonework created impact craters on the walls, especially prominent in the west wall seen here.
