Across the lane from Hailes Abbey in Gloucestershire is Hailes Church, a small country chapel that predates its more famous neighbour by a half-century. The small Norman church stands on the edge of a farm field, directly opposite the ruins of the Cistercian abbey. Hailes Church was begun around 1135 and is famous for its wonderful collection of medieval wall paintings.
