Parish church
Longbridge Deverill is a village on the river Wylye in SW Wiltshire, 2.5 miles S of Warminster. The church lies to the N of the village and has Saxon origins. The building originally consisted of a chancel and nave; it was dedicated by Archbishop Thomas Becket after 1162, by which time it must have been substantially complete. The aisles, W tower and S porch were added in the 14thc and 16thc. In 1852 the chancel, Bath chapel and vestry were extended eastwards.
Although the present building predominantly dates from the 14th and 15thc, the N nave arcade dates from the first half of the 12thc. The font also dates from the same period.
Parish church
The village is 4 miles E of Chippenham. The church of St Martin has Saxon origins: the NW corner of the nave features long-and-short work. However, the nave arcades date from the 13thc but were restored in 1850. The chancel also dates to the 13thc. The only Romanesque carving is the font.
Parish church
The fabric of the church is 12thc in origin, much rebuilt in the 17thc, when the porch may have been added, and restored in 1879. The present building consists of a chancel, nave and S porch.
Parish church
Shalfleet church forms the core of the small nucleated village of the same name a little inland the island’s NW coast and to the S of a series of fleets draining into the Solent. The church consists of a substantial W tower, nave, S aisle, N and S porches and the chancel. The massive tower is slightly wider than the nave. The main entrance to the church is through the N porch and the doorway with a tympanum above. The lower parts of the N wall of the nave would appear to be contemporary with this doorway, with much of the wall being rebuilt in 1812. The S arcade of the nave of four bays was constructed in the mid to late 13thc and the chancel rebuilt at about this time. The north porch was constructed in 1754 (Lloyd and Pevsner 2006, 259-261). The Romanesque features are the N doorway to the nave and the W tower.

The fabric is shale, red sandstone, and usually granite on the quoins. The tower is rendered. Romanesque sculpture is found on the font.

Consisting of a chancel, aisled nave and W tower, it was largely rebuilt by T H Wyatt in 1845, retaining the 15thc tower and S arcade. The S doorway is the building's earliest element and bears its only Romanesque sculpture.

Yatesbury is a village about 8 miles NW of Marlborough. The church, built of chalk and freestone, lies to the W of the village and consists of a chancel, a 13thc nave and N arcade, one surviving bay of a late-12thc S arcade which now houses the heavily restored and relocated S door, and a 15thc W tower. There is Romanesque carving on the S arcade, the S door, and the font.
Parish church
St John’s church is situated close to the early 17thc. manor house known as Yaverland Manor; together they occupy a small level of rising ground, to the S of the lateral chalk ridge in the ‘Bembridge Isle’ area at the eastern extremity of the Isle of Wight. St John's church originally consisted of a nave and chancel dating from the 12thc., connected by an elaborately carved chancel arch. It was restored in 1887--89 by the architect, Ewan Christian (1814--1895), who added the western bell turret and the south porch, which now protects the Romanesque S doorway of the nave (Lloyd and Pevsner 2006, 310-2). The Romanesque features are the S doorway and the chancel arch.
Parish church

The tower is late 14thc or early 15thc with the upper stage possibly 16thc (Pevsner 1989, 902; Historic England listing:164596). The S porch is 19thc. It was restored in the 19thc by S. Cooper of Hatherleigh, and in 1929-30 by Harbottle Reed (Historic England listing:164596). The font is the only 12thc feature.
