- Yatton, Herefordshire (The Chapel)
This tiny gem of a church in its farmyard setting is both remote and romantic.
Built by the Normans shortly after the Conquest, it lies down a lane deep in the countryside. Its atmosphere is reinforced by crumbling plaster walls and simple earth floor. There is a 12th-century tympanum over the door.
This holy place is wild but not savage, and perhaps just a little enchanted.

If the access information for this church is listed as 'Keyholder nearby', this means that the key is kept by one of our invaluable volunteer 'keyholders', who usually live just a short walk from the church and can give visitors the key; sometimes this is a nearby hotel, pub, library, art gallery or other venue. You will find instructions explaining how to get the key when you arrive at the church.
Due to the historic nature of our buildings, only a very small number of them have heating or running water meaning that they can be cold, and very rarely have toilet facilities. The lighting is usually operated via a 'push button' timer or a motion sensor. We do apologise for any inconvenience the lack of facilities may cause.
