St Mary the Virgin, Tarrant Crawford, Medieval church in Tarrant Crawford, England.
The stone church features a 12th-century flint chancel, a 14th-century nave, and a tower containing three bells from different periods.
Founded in 1101, St Mary the Virgin remains as the last standing structure from the former Cistercian Tarrant Abbey complex.
The interior walls display medieval paintings from the 13th and 14th centuries, including scenes of St Margaret of Antioch and the Annunciation.
