The Corpus of ROMANESQUE SCULPTURE in Britain & Ireland
Salisbury (now)
Parish church
The church, located in the S of the village, consists of a nave, chancel, N porch, a small chapel of 2 bays and a W tower. The long and short quoins in the N wall survive from the Anglo-Saxon church which stood on this site and probably consisted of a nave and chancel. The font dates from the 12th century and the N door probably from the late 12th century.
Parish church
The nave of the church has four-bay, pointed arcades of the end of the 12th or early 13thc. In the late 13th or early 14thc. the chancel was rebuilt and a south chapel was added to it in 1861 by G.E. Street. The tower is Perpendicular in style. The church was restored in 1889-90 by C.E. Ponting.
Parish church
The chancel arch indicates that some parts of the body of the church date from the 12th and early 13th century, and the font also dates from the 12th century. However, the Romanesque remains of most significance are three carved fragments with clear links to the leading sculptor of Old Sarum in the 1130s. There is also a chevron voussoir from a large elaborate door and a volute capital, earlier in date than the other fragments.
The west tower dates from the 14th century but most of the building dates from the 19th century. The church was reworked by T. H. Wyatt in 1843 and the south arcade was replaced by E. H. Lingen Barker in 1878-79.
Parish church
St John the Baptist in Stockton has a chancel with a date of 1840 on the exterior. The nave, however, has two-bay arcades dating from the 12th century, a 15th century clerestory and a 19th century roof. The nave arcades were extended eastwards in the 14th century and the nave was restored in 1879. The lower part of the west tower may also date from the 12th century. The choir was built in the late Middle Ages and in the 19th century. The font may also be 12th century.
Parish church
The church consists of a nave, a chancel and a bell-turret. The S door of the nave is an elaborate mixture of 12th-century and probably 19th-century carving. The N door incorporates some elements from the 12th century though their arrangement is later.
Parish church
Cherhill lies 4 km E of Calne. The church is built of stone rubble and is partly rendered. It consists of a 12th-century chancel and nave, S aisle, S porch, 15th century W tower and N vestry. The only clear Romanesque feature is a blocked door in the north wall of the nave.
Parish church
Only remnants of the N wall to the chancel of the 12thc church survive, together with a possible N doorway to the nave, and the font. The present building consists of a chancel, extended in the 13thc and rebuilt in the 15thc and 19thc; a 13thc nave; a late-14thc S porch and W tower; and an early 15thc S chapel with a 2-bay arcade into the nave.
Parish church
Most of the church is 14thc. with later medieval additions, with restorations in 1842, 1878, 1917 and 1965. Part of the nave wall may be 12thc., but the main object of interest for the Corpus is the 12thc. font.
Parish church
The church, built of flint and limestone ashlar, comprises a nave with N and S aisles and clerestory; a chancel with S vestry and N organ chamber; a W tower; and a N porch. Some elements of the nave arcades date from the late 12thc, although they were rebuilt when the church was restored by T. H. Wyatt in 1855. A new chancel was built at this time and the S aisle of the nave was rebuilt. The responds of the early 13thc chancel arch were retained. Romanesque sculpture is found on some of the arcade capitals, the chancel arch and on a fragment of loose sculpture. In the early 19thc, Buckler illustrated a plain font that was in the church prior to the restoration.
Parish church
Bratton is a village about 2.5 miles E of Westbury and 25 miles NE of Salisbury. The church lies to the S of the village and is largely Perpendicular in date, although it possibly replaced an earlier building. The chancel was rebuilt in 1854 by George Gilbert Scott. The only 12thc carving is the font which has been over-restored.
