Woolstone is a pretty and wooded place under a handsome hill crowned with a Roman camp. The tower of the church is Perpendicular with corner buttresses. The top is battlemented with four crocketed pinnnacles. The stone carved gargoyles date from 1470. The font is an example of Perpendicular work. Woolstone belonged to the Diocese of Worcester from ancient times until the See of Gloucester was formed by Henry VIII in 1541.
