St John the Baptist's Church, Hope Bagot, Norman church in Hope Bagot, England.
The stone church features a two-stage west tower with inward-inclining walls, topped by a pyramidal cap and decorated with lancet windows.
Built around 1150, the church underwent modifications in the 13th, 14th, and 17th centuries, with restorations in 1868 and 1911 by architect W.D. Caroe.
The interior maintains Norman elements, including a 12th-century font, a 17th-century oak pulpit, and a wall painting with inscriptions from 1681.
The Grade I listed building serves as an active Anglican parish church in the deanery of Ludlow, within the diocese of Hereford.
In the churchyard stands an ancient yew tree next to a holy well, which local tradition claims possessed healing properties for eye ailments.
