Church of Holy Trinity

The Church of Holy Trinity is a parish church located in Norton Malreward. It dates from the late 12th century and underwent alterations in the 15th century, with significant rebuilding carried out between 1860 and 1861 by James Wilson of Bath. The church comprises a west tower, nave, south aisle, chancel, and north vestry. It is constructed of coursed squared rubble with freestone dressings and features a slate roof.

The west tower has two stages, with diagonal buttresses on the lower stage, an embattled ashlar parapet, and pinnacles. It includes a single Perpendicular style bell chamber window with a quatrefoil pierced vent and a three-light Perpendicular style west window. The nave and south aisle are adorned with three two-light plain Perpendicular style windows, separated by buttresses from the 1860s, and enriched corbels displaying arms and symbols. The east window features three lights.

Inside, there is a three-bay arcade leading to the south aisle, supported by squat granite columns with elaborate foliate capitals. The chancel arch, restored from the late 12th century, consists of two orders; the outer order has twisted colonettes decorated with beading, scalloped capitals, and nailhead zig-zag moulding, while the outer moulding is embellished with large beads. The font, dating from the 12th century, has a cylindrical stem and a recut top.

Notable monuments include a 14th-century lid with relief heads of a man and wife in the tower, a 15th-century slab featuring a pair of foliated crosses, an inscribed oval tablet for Robert Paine, who died in 1720, in the chancel, and a marble plaque commemorating the Adams family from 1766 in the nave, set under a broken pediment with arms.
