St Mary's Church

Just behind the house, you will find the parish church of St. Mary's, Lydiard Tregoze.

The Golden CavalierOne of England's finest small churches, it is richly packed with monuments to the St. John family including the Golden Cavalier, a full-size effigy of Edward St John emerging from his tent in full battledress. Simon Jenkins wrote in praise of St Mary’s in 2004: “Were the South Chapel to be removed lock, stock and barrel to the Victoria & Albert Museum in London, it would cause a sensation.”
