The original interior arches of the church were removed in 1756, being placed at the top of the adjacent hill as a folly where they still stand.
The Herefordshire School was a group of master masons working in Herefordshire and Worcestershire during the 12th century. They were heavily influenced by carving seen in churches and monasteries in south western France. Their distinctive ‘Romanesque’ sandstone and limestone carvings are to be found in several parish churches in the area, notably Kilpeck, but also Eardisley, Leominster and Castle Frome.
It is clear from the quality of the carving that the pre 1756 church was also a magnificent building.
