The parish church of St. Bartholomew is situated near Bosbury in the neighbouring parish of Munsley. The Rev. Michael Hopton transcribed the two volumes of the Parish Register of Munsley covering 1708 to 1812 together with the Bishop’s transcript of the register before 1708. The Rectory of Munsley was united to the vicarage of Canon Frome in 1854 and Rev. Hopton was Rector from 1859 to 1871. Download the book here.
