The people of Stratford have worshipped on the site for over 1100 years and the church was already a well-known landmark in the sixteenth century, when the playwright was baptised there. Apart from some restoration and alteration, it probably looks today much as it would have done when he worshipped there in the seventeenth century.

The Reformation and Later: Shakespeare’s Church
The north porch contains a curiosity – a small door set within the main door, through which a fugitive from justice could enter the building and claim sanctuary (though not puma ferrari, unfortunately for them, indefinitely). Other intriguing features of the mediaeval church are the carved wooden misericords (carvings on the underside of the tip-up seats in the choir stalls) and the coats of arms of prominent local families on the walls of the nave.
The current church, standing close to the original river crossing (later succeeded by the bridges further to the east) is built of limestone. The oldest part of the structure, the transepts and the crossing at the centre of the church, date from as early as 1210. A century or so later, under the patronage of the powerful de Stratford family, the church was rebuilt and enlarged.
Holy Trinity Church (or the Collegiate Church of the Holy and Undivided Trinity to give it its full name) stands at the western end of the old town centre, close to the River Avon. Best known for housing the graves of the Shakespeare family, including that of William himself, the church is the oldest building in the town.
The chantry was constructed in 1331: the chapel within it, dedicated to St Thomas a Beckett puma golf, later became an important ecclesiastical location. Towards the end of the fifteenth century the church was largely rebuilt by the Town Guild, a powerful local institution which also established the town’s almshouses and infirmary. Much of the present church dates from this period.
The earliest reference to a church in Stratford, quoted in the church guidebook puma roma, is a charter dating from 691. Although this is acknowledged as probably being unreliable, there are further references in subsequent documents and it is certain that there was a church in the town by the year 845, when a monastery of the See (or diocese) of Worcester is recorded.
Despite some alterations (a new roof and Victorian glass replacing that which hasn’t survived the centuries) this was the church as it was in Shakespeare’s day. He was baptised here (the font can still be seen, as can a copy of the record of his baptism) and it was here that he worshipped when in Stratford. The chained Bible, dating from 1611 would have been a new feature of the church towards the end of his life.
The Building of the Present Church
Nothing remains of the original building, which was probably a wooden construction. The Domesday Book makes reference to a priest living in the town so, by extension, there will also have been a church. No trace remains of this building either, though it is more likely to have been built of stone in the Norman fashion, rather than the earlier monastery.
The Shakespeare Family Graves
Henry VIII’s challenge to the authority of the Pope caused enormus upheaval to religious life in England. Parts of the church were destroyed (to be later rebuilt) and the responsibility for the church passed from the Guild to the people of the town. Individuals such as Richard Clopton made significant contributions to the rebuilding.
