Doynton

My home village, in South Gloucestershire

Holy Trinity Church
The Holy Trinity Church is at the centre of Doynton village. It was largely rebuilt between 1864 and 1867 but dates back to Saxon times. Its features include 12th century herringbone masonry on the south wall - a style almost unique in this part of the country. It also features a 12th century leper window, again situated in the south wall and the 13th century Lady Chapel.

Doynton's history can be traced back to the Domesday Book (1086) in which the village is mentioned as having two mills.
Cross House Inn
Built 300 years ago and serving as an inn for 200 years. An open log fire in the bar and split-level interior creates a welcoming ambience. It is allegedly haunted by the ghost of Archie Carrow, who was the landlord for 50 years. The pub is thought to have been a part of the nearby Dyrham estate, managed by the National Trust.
