St. Mary-the-Virgin
St. Mary-the-Virgin Review
One of the most remarkable churches in the region, St. Mary-the-Virgin was started just before the Reformation. The doors underneath the ruined archways outside (remnants of a much older church) contain a coded message left by Catholic sympathizers of the time. The striking interior contains a host of wonderful little treasures, including an ancient wall painting of the Virgin Mary in one of the rear chapels, a 14th-century chest, and an extraordinary series of florid memorial stones on the nave wall opposite the main entrance.
