St Mary the Virgin
Wormsley, Herefordshire
A tiny church with ancient origins.
This Victorian church has a needle-sharp spire that overlooks the Wye Valley. The church was built at the expense of the Price family of nearby Foxley between 1843 and 1855. The architect was George Moore but the spire and remarkable fittings were completed by the rector, The Revd RL Freer.
The dark and atmospheric interior is a riot of colourful painting and wonderful wood carving, lit by some beautiful stained glass.
This church is also part of our Five Churches Trail, which takes you on a wonderful journey around the rural heartland of Herefordshire.
