St. Mary’s was the original church in Devizes. The present building, started by Bishop Roger of Salisbury in 1143, replaced an earlier simpler church built outside the castle walls for the growing town.
The church has fine proportions and graceful lofty arcades. The Tower is one of the most remarkable features of St. Mary’s with its soaring tower arch. It is forty feet high and ten feet wide, its apex being level with the top of the clerestory.
Join us this September and chat with our volunteers about the @stmary project and learn about the future of the church as well as the past.
Download our history booklet or pick one up in church on the day. We also have children’s activity sheets to help them explore this fabulous building.
