Church of the Holy Trinity, Medieval parish church in Weston, England
The flint and ironstone church features a chancel rebuilt in 1840, a 15th-century nave roof, and an octagonal font with quatrefoiled panels on the bowl.
The Knights Templar received the church's advowson before 1148 from Gilbert de Clare, retaining control until their suppression in 1309 when it transferred to Knights Hospitallers.
The church contains a 15th-century nave roof supported by grotesque corbels and houses an octagonal oak pulpit transferred from St Mary the Less in Cambridge.
Five bells occupy the belfry, including pieces crafted by John Waylett in 1716, Miles Graye in 1634, Warner & Sons in 1867, and R Chandler in 1682.
The churchyard contains an unusually long grave associated with Jack o'Legs, a local figure who, according to folklore, lived in a cave and stole food from Baldock.
