Old Church of St Helen, Rudgeway is a medieval parish church in Gloucestershire, the remains of which demonstrate the settlement patterns and religious provision of the rural medieval Cotswolds. The church dates from the twelfth century or earlier, with evidence of successive phases of construction and modification through the medieval period. The site's abandonment as an active parish church reflects the shifting patterns of habitation and ecclesiastical organisation characteristic of the post-medieval Cotswold landscape. The surviving physical remains contribute to the understanding of medieval religious architecture and the long-term development of settlement in this part of Gloucestershire.
