“Here is one of the six finest parish churches in Gloucestershire”.
So says the late David Verey, author and architectural historian and Simon Jenkins in “England’s Thousand Best Churches”. Lechlade Parish Church is a landmark for miles around, set close to the Thames, dominating the market square and with the most beautiful churchyard which inspired the poet Shelley to write his famous stanzas in 1815.
