Churches in South West England
If churches, or historical buildings, are of interest then visit South West England for Bradford on Avon St Laurence Church alone. Dating from around 700AD, this Saxon church is tiny and remarkable. In the region, we'd also highlight The Doom Painting in Salisbury St Thomas Beckett Church and the Gothic carving on Tiverton St Peter's Church. Browse our 'Top 10 Recommended Churches in South West England' list for inspiration. In addition, look at our other 'Top 10' lists for further ideas. We'd suggest you search 'South West churches', too. By James Penman.
