St Mary's Church, Medieval parish church in Fairford, England
St Mary's Church features a square tower with niches, an embattled parapet, and four angular pinnacles extending above the main structure point.
The construction of the current building started in 1480 through the patronage of John Tame, a wool merchant who invested his fortune in the project.
The church contains twenty-eight medieval stained glass windows that narrate biblical stories through detailed imagery and color compositions.
Visitors can explore the church daily from 10 AM to 5 PM, with guided tours available through advance booking at the Parish Office.
The marble floor alternates between blue and white squares, complementing fourteen carved misereres and an ornate rood-screen within the interior.
