St. Olave's Church, Gatcombe, 13th-century parish church in Gatcombe, England
The stone church features a tower with three large bells and grotesque carvings beneath the parapet and south door entrance.
Originally constructed in 1292 as a chapel for the Estur family of Gatcombe House, the church received its tower addition during the 15th century.
The interior displays stained glass windows created by William Morris, Dante Gabriel Rossetti, Ford Madox Brown, and Edward Burne-Jones between 1865 and 1866.
The church remains open during daylight hours and holds regular services on Sundays, including Holy Communion, Morning Worship, and Evensong.
A wooden military effigy from the 14th century rests in a chancel recess, featuring an angel by its head and a lion at its feet.
