It is the site where William Shakespeare and close members of his family are burried inside.It is in Old Town near a bank of the River Avon.2010 is the 800th anniversary of the present building which dates to 1210.Information from a leaflet I was given after paying £1.50 to go to the section to view Shakespeare's Grave.There has been a church on this site since at least 713 when a Saxon monastery was built here. The present building dates from 1210, with the oldest sections being the tower, transepts and nave pillars. The North and South aisles were added in the 1300s and the Chancel in the late 1400s.The Church of the Holy Trinity is a Grade I listed building.Church; collegiate status from 1415 to 1547.

Church of the Holy Trinity, Stratford - Heritage GatewayBefore I went in, I went around the grounds getting my exterior shots of the church.A view from the Holy Trinity Church of the Colin P Witter Lock. I later got a shot of it walking past it down the river (on the other side heading south).Lock on Upper Avon Navigation - previously called Stratford Lock.Once famously described by a lady councillor as "Mr Hutchings' monstrous erection in the park."This lock, because of its unusual depth and the unstable nature of the ground (silt pit) was the most difficult to build, which accounts for the unusual girders used to stabilise the structure.The work was done by men from Gloucester Gaol and other volunteers.
