Church of St Nicholas and St Swithin

The Church of St Nicholas and St Swithin is a Grade II* listed building dating from around 1500. It is constructed of coursed limestone rubble with ashlar quoins and dressings, featuring roughcast nave walls and a stone-coped gabled stone slate roof. The church comprises a chancel and nave with a porch.

The east window is a late 15th-century two-light hollow-chamfered round-headed window, with two similar windows on the south side and a one-light window on the north. The nave includes two tiny rood lights in the east gable, a one-light window on the north, and a two-light window on the south. The gabled south porch has a moulded bargeboard, and the east wall displays a reset carving from the 11th or early 12th century featuring beaded arcs. The porch also has a label mould over a hollow-chamfered round-arched doorway, leading to a 15th-century studded door fitted into a four-centred moulded doorway. The west end features a similar late 15th-century two-light window along with two paired 13th-century lancets, and a late 19th-century bellcote.

Inside, there are two pedestals for statues and a square recess with a piscina. The late 15th-century chancel screen has traceried heads in the open panels, and the octagonal font from the same period has blank shields with an early 18th-century cover. The nave boasts a late 15th-century three-bay tie-beam roof with moulded and quartered beams and hollow-chamfered joists, which are also present in the porch roof. This small parish church is located adjacent to a moat and is set within the grounds of Yelford Manor.
