Odda's Chapel

Recommended by Visit England Logo
Overview
Odda’s Chapel used to be concealed behind walls added over the course of later centuries. The chancel had been divided by floors, while the nave had become a kitchen. Only in 1865 was this complete Saxon chapel revealed. The Odda Stone, an inscribed tablet discovered inside, dates the chapel’s construction to 1056.

About the area
Gloucestershire is home to a variety of landscapes, including the Cotswolds, a region of gentle hills, valleys and gem-like villages that roll through the county. To their west is the Severn Plain, watered by Britain’s longest river and characterised by orchards and farms marked out by hedgerows that blaze with mayflower in the spring; beyond the Severn are the Forest of Dean and the Wye Valley.
