The Anglican Church of St Mary at Edgeworth in the Cotswold District of Gloucestershire, England, was built in 11th century. It is a grade I listed building. [1]
The building was originally Saxon but has been revised and expanded many times. [2] In the 12th century the chancel was added and the tower in the 14th.
A major Victorian restoration removed some of the Romanesque architecture in the interior of the church. [2]
Several species of bats have been identified in the church. [3]
The limestone building has stone slate roofs. It consists of a nave, chancel, south porch and west tower. [1] The tower has a sundial and many gargoyles and grotesques. [4]
Most of the internal furnishing is from the 19th century, but there is a font and some of the bench ends from the 15th century. [1] There are also remnants of 14th-century stained glass. [1]
