Yazor’s thin tower and spire and its two tall Wellingtonia trees stand out on their hillside, overlooking the main road and the Wye valley beyond. The church was built at the expense of the Price family of nearby Foxley between 1843 and 1855. The architect was George Moore but the spire and remarkable fittings were completed by the rector, The Reverend R L Freer. The sanctuary is a riot of colour and carving. There is good quality stained glass and many monuments came from the old church, a field away.
