There was a chapel at Oldberrow in the first half of the 12thc. to which
Simon Dispenser had right of presentation. About 1150 Bishop Simon of Worcester
consecrated a cemetery there for parishioners, but the monks of Couches claimed
that the burial rights belonged to their church of Wootten Wawen and the Abbey
of Evesham said it was on their fee. The bishop ordered two shilling yearly be
paid to the church at Wootten.
