Background

Description

The parish church, near the house, is an unusual domed Georgian building with the plan of a Greek Cross. It contains memorials to the Barons Rivers and to most of the Dukes of Wellington, except the famous first duke. His funerary hatchment may, however, be seen. James Gerald Joyce (1819–78) was rector here from 1855 until his death. His interests were in archaeology and he led excavations at Calleva Atrebatum, where he discovered the Silchester eagle in 1866. His wife Ellen Joyce was notable for her support of women emigrating to the empire.
