Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Infobox church The Anglican Church of St Lawrence at Didmarton in the Cotswold District of Gloucestershire, England was built in the 13th century. It is a grade I listed building.[1]

History

The church was originally built in the 12th and 13th centuries, revised in the 15th, and underwent extensive renovation in the 18th.[1][2]

North and West galleries, for minstrels and those who could not afford box pews have been removed.[3]

In 1872 the church was described as redundant but in 1992 was restored to be the parish church of Didmarton with Oldbury-on-the-Hill.[4]

Architecture

The L-shaped stone building has stone slate roofs with a small bellcote. It consists of a transept, chancel and sanctuary.[1]

Inside the church are box pews and a triple decker oak pulpit.[5] Behind the pulpit is a decalogue with the Ten Commandments.[3]

The font has a stem from the 12th century, bowl from the 14th and an 18th-century wooden cover.[6]
