St James the Apostle, Kinnersley, Herefordshire
(Click on an image for a larger version)
The original 12th century church was a simple rectangular structure with no tower. During the next 4 centuries the church was enlarged with the addition of the chancel and sanctuary, the north and south aisles and the tower which has 4 bells. Restoration in 1868 by Thomas Nicholson included a "gothic" chancel arch which sadly involved the removal of the upper three quarters of the rood screen and the blocking of its staircase
This marble monument is dedicated to Dame Anne Morgan who died in 1764
