Salisbury (now)
Parish church
The present chapel was built in 1841 to replace a medieval chapel, the ruins of which lie just under a mile to the NNE. The church guide states that the font was brought from that old chapel.
Parish church
This small church consists of a chancel, a nave, and a large double-storied N porch, that was meant to carry a tower (Pevsner, 282). The 19th-century timber chancel arch sits on short shafts with reset 12th-century capitals. The nave, though restored in 1874-6, is Norman in origin, with an early 12th-century S door. A slab that is now part of the altar is also Norman.
Parish church
The church was built in 1844 to designs by T.H. Wyatt and David Brandon. The font dates from the 12thc. and originated from an earlier church.
Parish church
The N and S nave arcades and the north door of the nave demonstrate that the nave dates from the second half of the 12thc. though the clerestory was added in the 15thc. A piscina in the chancel is made from a reused scalloped capital. The chancel has flat buttresses suggesting a Norman origin, though it was altered in the 14thc. The church was restored by William Butterfield in 1847-9.
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 church consists of a rebuilt chancel, a nave, aisles, and a W tower. This church has a complicated history that was documented by RCHME in the Churches of South-East Wiltshire. The lowest part of the tower dates from the 12th century and has pilaster buttresses, but most of the church belongs to the 13th and 15th centuries.
Parish church
This church was built in 1891 by C.E. Ponting who retained the 14th century south porch and 15th century tower in the new building. The font bowl is the only Romanesque fabric that survives.
Parish church
The chancel was rebuilt in the 1870s but the nave and the west tower belong to the 13th and 14thc. The only potentially 12thc. carvings are two eroded blocks set on either side of the arch in the N wall of the N porch.
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.
