St Mary's Church, Highley
Highley Church is the oldest building in the village. The earliest parts were built when the creation of the Domesday book was still in living memory, in the early 1100s. The Normans built most of the present chancel and nave (Figs 1, 2). Although within 150 years there were complaints that the building was falling down, much of this early work does survive, especially some of the windows and doors.
