Somerford Keynes is a village historically in the North Division of Wiltshire but now, administratively, in Gloucestershire. The church of All Saints dates back to AD685, though in the current structure only a reset door in the north wall of the nave dates back to that time. The extant structure is mainly 13'th century with the addition in the early 18'th century of a tower. The North Aisle has a significant 17'th century marble monument. This church was restored in the latter half of the 19'th century.
