Holy Trinity Church, Bradford-on-Avon

Holy Trinity Church, Bradford-on-Avon is a Grade I listed church in Bradford-on-Avon, Wiltshire, England. It is part of the Church of England within the Anglican Communion and Diocese of Salisbury. The parish of Holy Trinity has been a part of the benefice of Bradford on Avon Holy Trinity, Westwood and Wingfield since 2013.

History
The present church was built around 1150 and originally consisted of a chancel and nave. The chancel was lengthened around the beginning of the 13th century, and a section of the south east wall rebuilt in 1707. In 2016 the sale of a Flemish masterpiece by Quentin Matsys funded a £2m refurbishment of the church. A squint near the altar is claimed to be England's longest. The tower with spire was built around 1480, replacing an older one, and the south wall was largely rebuilt in the 19th century. The church has a ring of eight bells, with the tenor (heaviest bell) weighing.

Leadership
the rector is The Reverend Canon Joanna Margaret Abecassis, who previously completed a PhD in agricultural landownership at the University of Cambridge. Abecassis took over as priest in charge in 2010 when her predecessor William Andrew Matthews retired. She has served as rector since 2013.
