I've visited Bosbury church at least three or four times in recent years and it never disappoints, a church full of interest and remarkable in appearance, the first indication of this being the massive detached red sandstone tower that stands like a fortress at the edge of the churchyard beside the roadside, some distance from the main body of the church. It is a huge great block, like the keep of some ancient castle had been planted in a rural Herefordshire churchyard as a sentinel to watch over it, and indeed being border territory in medieval times that was largely the thinking behind it.
Holy Trinity church itself is a substantial building even without an attached tower, and dates mostly from the Transitional period, being a mix of late Norman and early Gothic styles. The only part that clearly does not belong to this phase is the Morton chantry on the south side, which erupts from the south aisle in a burst of Perpendicular traceried windows and battlements.
Inside the church feels uncommonly large for a parish church, and the nave arcades clearly evoke the stylistic cusp of the Transitional 1200s, being pointed arches but springing from Norman-style capitals. The ancient font has recently been reinstated at the west end of the nave, having been in the south aisle on my previous visits. The Morton Chantry is a delight inside, replete with a delicate late medieval vaulted ceiling with pendant bosses including a rebus of the deceased.
The most memorable features inside Bosbury church however aren't revealed until one progresses to the chancel, where this great dark space is dominated by two huge Renaissance style monuments flanking the sanctuary. They are the work of one John Guldo of Hereford, who may have been of continental origin as the style of these tombs is of a type not commonly seen here but more so in Northern Europe. The tombs of the Harford family commemorate father and son respectively, and of the two that on the north side is by far the richest in terms of its exuberant detail. There is a rustic quality to the carving, but it is nevertheless a florid and impressive display like no other.
This is one of those churches one shouldn't miss if exploring the area as it is rather special, and happily is normally open and welcoming to visitors (even on this my most recent visit, when other churches nearby were still reluctant to reopen after Lockdown).

Thialf, 11 maart 2012. Laatste dag van de Europese kwalificatiewedstrijden shorttrack voor de Special Olympics. Heel anders fotograferen dan een “normale” shorttrackwedstrijd. Prachtig die inzet, de prestaties en alle plezier en blijdschap. Vanwege het grote aantal foto’s in deze set heb ik ze voor het uploaden verkleind van pixelbreedte 5184 naar 2000. Alle foto’s op iso 3200 en verder onbewerkt. Ik zal zorgen dat ze in de originele resolutie naar de organisatie gaan.
