If one were to walk from Temple Meads Train Station to the center of Bristol, they just might pass a 12th-century church with connections to the Knights Templar.

From across the road on Victoria Street, visitors will notice that the tower has a rather severe lean. The steeple was a later addition and was most likely built during the 14th-century. The original structure was meant to be a round church built by the Knights Templar, this was to provide a safe haven for traveling pilgrims at the beginning of the 1100s.

The remains can still be seen in the interior of the church ruins. A more modern chapel was constructed in the 1700s. However, this structure would not survive a bombing attack during the Blitz of World War II. Today, the church and surrounding gardens have been given a GradeII building status.
