St Faith
Bacton, Herefordshire
Bacton church has the nationally important Blanche Parry memorial, a beautiful copy of the priceless Bacton Altar Cloth, the only surviving piece from the Queen Elizabeth I dresses.
Here, the little church is in a hamlet with an old farmhouse next door, and with wonderful views away to the south and west.
The church is very simple: chancel and nave, with a wooden bell turret over the west end. Its chief treasure is its beautiful rood loft, a rare survivor in any church, and particularly well preserved here. It dates from about 1520.
