Church of the Holy Cross, Sherston

[3] Nikolaus Pevsner writes: "An impressive church with a crossing tower, almost too high for the rest.

There is also a standing figure of a saint, from the mid to late 12th century, above the east side of the later south porch.

[5] Pevsner describes the crossing arches as "partly resting on big and excellently carved heads".

Julian Orbach, updating Pevsner, likens the two upper stages to Sumsion's work at Colerne and Dursley, and links the openwork battlements and square pinnacles to Gloucester Cathedral.

[6] Monuments include in the south aisle a fine 1715 portrayal of Joyce Hitchings as a praying woman, and in the chancel for Anne Hodges (1676) and Thomas Estcourt Cresswell (1788), said by Pevsner to be "an elegant work".
