Church of the Holy Rood, Medieval church in Ampney Crucis, England
The Church of the Holy Rood features limestone walls with slate roofs, a cruciform layout including a nave, porch, chancel, and north vestry.
The church origins trace back to January 17, 1050, with the Domesday Book of 1086 recording it as the Church of Omenie Holy Rood in Garsdon Hundred.
The interior contains 14th-century wall paintings, a Norman tub-shaped font, and a 12th-century pillar piscina with a square multi-scallop bowl.
Monthly Parish Communion services take place every third Sunday at 10 a.m., welcoming all community members to attend regular worship sessions.
The churchyard features a cross from 1415, which holds dual status as both a Grade I listed structure and a Scheduled Monument.
