St Michael's Church, Duntisbourne Rouse, Norman church in Duntisbourne Rouse, England.

St Michael's Church stands on a steep hillside, featuring rubble limestone construction with herringbone stonework on its north and east walls.

The church originated around 1050, incorporating Saxon architectural elements, followed by Norman additions including the chancel and an underground barrel-vaulted crypt.

The interior contains wooden box pews, a carved Jacobean pulpit, and four medieval misericords depicting lion-like faces on the south chancel wall.

The church maintains its position as an active parish within the Diocese of Gloucester, serving the local community through regular Anglican services.

Red ochre wall paintings from the 13th century remain visible in the chancel, accompanied by an organ donated by Katherine Mansfield's sisters.
