The market town of Devizes developed around its 11th century castle. It gained a charter in 1141 and holds a weekly market in the large and picturesque Market Place. In the 16th century the town became known for its textiles and in the early 18th century held the largest corn market in the West Country. Devizes has about 500 listed buildings - a very large number for a small town.

The church was built in the 1860s with stonework that has started to decay slightly, revealing the layered strata of the blocks.

St. Peter's Church, Devizes
I searched in vain on the sign boards for some indication of what sort of Christianity was practised here, but noted the adjacent school (the pointy building to the right) was St. Peter's Church of England School, and the church man in charge called himself 'Fr.', which was puzzling. On reading the church web site, it turns out this is an Anglo-Catholic church. They seem to have fallen out with the local church bosses (probably over women), and now look to the Bishop of Ebbsfleet (in Kent!) for higher guidance.
A Victorian grade II listed church.

This trompe l'oeil doorway is very well done. It faces onto the main Bath Road (A361).
