Holy Trinity Churchyard
Stratford-upon-Avon, Stratford-on-Avon District, Warwickshire, England
A Saxon church existed in Stratford as early as the 9th century, but no trace remains of this early wooden building. The Normans replaced the Saxon building with a stone structure, and this itself was rebuilt in 1210. This building forms the core of the Holy Trinity which has been added to over the centuries. The building is believed to have originally had a wooden spire, which was replaced by William Hiorne in 1763.
William Shakespeare is buried in Holy Trinity church, and visitors can view his grave for a small contribution and see the parish registers that record his birth and death.
The tree-lined churchyard lies mostly north of the church bordering the river Avon.
