Eardisland Village Hall

The former village school, the subject of a long fight to prevent its closure which made national headlines. The fight was lost and the school closed in 1979. The building was saved and became the village hall. The house to the left was the school master's house.

St Mary, Eardisland

A well loved village church set in an immaculate churchyard with venerable yew trees. An early 13th century foundation, extended in the 14th century. The tower was rebuilt in 1760 by Thomas Hooper of Yarpole and the whole building was restored by Henry Curzon in 1864-5.

The 'big solid' South porch, added to the church in the early 14th century.

St Mary, Eardisland

The 13th century South door, set in a porch of a century later. The door dates from the 1864-5 restoration, as does the wondrous hingework.

St Mary, Eardisland

A short stretch of the South wall and you can see much of the building's history. The 13th century is represented by the thin lancet window and the redundant priest's door on the extreme right (not required when the church was extended to the East). The buttresses are also from this period, although they were 'restored' in 1864-5. The three-light 'Herefordshire' window dates from the early 14th century. It is ornamented with ballflower, also a county speciality.
