  • Pre-booking not required

Celebrate the fine architecture of this Grade 1 church - its lovely tower, original Jacobean pews, beautiful chancel arch and an intriguing 'stepway' to Heaven?

Volunteers will be available to show you round and point out the features that make this charming little church such a gem.

Pendock church is seen standing proud above the motorway to Ross-on-Wye. Earthworks in fields north of the church mark the site of a medieval village and probably the de Pendocks' manor house.

Much of this charming church is Norman, although the tenth-century font suggests an even earlier building; in the fourteenth century new windows were added, and the west tower was built. There are lovely sixteenth-century pews and Jacobean communion rails. It is thought that the famous English composer Sir Edward Elgar may once have played the lovely little Georgian organ inside.

Park carefully on the lane or drive up the track and park nearer the church.
