St Catherine's church, Hoarwithy, Herefordshire.


A remarkable church. Within, the nave is plain but the chancel astounding. White marble columns support a dome with a golden apse to the east displaying a mosica Christ as Ruler of the World. The pulpit and altar are of more white marble, inlaid with green marble, pophyry, lapis and tigers-eye. The floors are of colooured slabs and further mosaic work. A more British feel is given by the oaken choir stalls depicting local saints and scenes from the life of St Dyfrig.
