St Mary and St Barlock's Church, Norbury, Medieval church in Norbury, England
The church features a chancel measuring 46 feet in length, a nave of 49 feet, and contains three bells in the tower from different centuries.
Construction started in 1295 with the chancel by the Fitzherbert family, replacing an earlier Norman church built around 1179 by John Fitzherbert.
The chancel windows contain grisaille glass from 1306, displaying coats of arms and geometric patterns that represent early English medieval artistry.
The church underwent a restoration in 2004, during which specialists at Holywell Glass cleaned eight stained glass panels over eighteen months.
The dedication to Saint Barlock connects to Saint Finbarr of Cork, reflecting John Fitzherbert's time as Governor of Waterford in 1174.
