L'ultimo gioiello di questa passeggiata senese è la Pieve di San Giovanni Battista, nota comunemente come pieve di Ponte allo Spino. Come non restare incantati di fronte alla plasticità della pieve che si staglia isolata nella piana su un prato ben tenuto e piante d'alto fusto che ne segnano e delimitano i confini così come sono posti su differenti piani prospettici Il sito non lascia indifferenti, lo spirito che aleggia tra le antiche mura dai colori caldi e dalle armoniche architetture è soave, ispira pace e serenità.

Ho allungato di una puntata il racconto fotografico per includere questa bellissima Pieve che si trova a poche centinaia di metri dalla svolta per la strada che porta alla Villa Cetinale come da cartina qui segnata.
Una deviazione che è semplice da effettuare e ne vale la pena.

N°1 svolta
N°2 parcheggio
N°3 Villa Cetinale
Punto rosso Pieve

Tondo piccolo uscita superstrada di Siena (est ?)
Tondo grande svolta
Punto rosso Pieve

Accanto al campanile, sicuramente più antico, si apre una porta ad arco che introduce in un ampio piazzale occupato in parte da un chiostro e sull'altro lato da un caseggiato con stemmi e belle bifore a impianto ogivale.

Elegante e sobrio il piccolo chiostro è costituito da un loggiato aperto da archetti sorretti da colonnine e capitelli di foggia diversa.

Sulla corte si trovano i resti di un piccolo chiostro, risalenti alla fine del XII secolo e venuti alla luce in occasione degli ultimi interventi di restauro. La costruzione presenta una successione di nove piccole arcate su colonnine. I materiali utilizzati sono pietre tufacee all'interno e calcare cavernoso all'esterno, che ha assunto col tempo una patina particolarmente preziosa.

Il campanile è inserito entro la prima campata della navatella destra, con il prospetto principale in linea con la facciata. La torre del campanile è preesistente all'attuale chiesa e fu inglobata durante i lavori di ampliamento in epoca medievale. Ricorsi di arcatelle scandiscono i piani, ove si aprono monofore e bifore in successione. Tuttavia le grandi monofore corrispondenti alla cella campanaria sono frutto di un rimaneggiamento posteriore. Sul lato destro è da notare la base a scarpa sormontata da un quadrante solare.

Sulla destra della chiesa, attraversando un arco si entra in una piccola corte. Il muro sulla parete destra mostra delle feritoie ed archibugiere, segno che il complesso era fortificato.
