Medieval Wall Painting at Kempley Church, Gloucestershire, with Ceiling Frescoes
Chancel arch, showing medieval wall paintings and ceiling frescoes at Kempley Church. The ceiling frescoes are dated to the 12th century, the wall paintings to the 14th or 15 centuries. The damage to the pillars was probably caused by alterations to or removal of the medieval Rood Screen which would have stretched across, and access to which would have been through the door that can just be glimpsed top right.
