This is the North door at St Edwards Church, Stow on the Wold, England, and is approximately 700 years old.
It is locally thought (though is unsubstantiated) that this door and the yews that flank it may have inspired Tolkien with the Doors of Durin.

Thanks for the info! It is a delightful door with delightful lore
Everyone could use some more door lore.
I'm a total door lore whore
yews that flank it may have inspired Tolkien with the Doors of Durin.
Nice. I was about to ask what species the trees were.
It's the perfect iconic English wood.
