The Vicars’ Board

vicars boad again 2

On the west wall of the nave, is an impressive carved board recording all the known Vicars of the parish. Only a few are recorded in the early years when Hartpury was served by monks from the Abbey in Gloucester. It was installed in 1999, and dedicated by the Bishop of Gloucester.

Photos of the Vicars from 1856 – 2012

The quality of some of these photos is not good – the one of Rev. Jones was found in a newspaper in 1914, announcing his appointment! If you can help with any better ones, or other historic views of the church and surroundings, please get in touch via the contact form.
