Notes about this historic site
1 Two private chapels are mentioned in the parish in the 14th century. In 1339 Emma Wilkynes received a licence from the Bishop of Worcester for a chaplain to celebrate in her oratory at Wood Bevington. The name of Chapel Oak Farm on the Evesham-Alcester road may commemorate either this chapel or PRN 1495.
