St Mary

with diagonal buttresses, plain embattled parapet with gargoyles and pinnacles

west doorway with four-centred head and carved leaf spandrels

North-east buttress of the church incorporates a decorated stone probably from a Roman altar at Bath: two niches, each with a figure, one is said to be Hercules and the other Apollo.

In c2000 the stone was replaced with a facsimile, and relocated to the Roman Baths Museum, Bath Interior: tall tower arch of two wave mouldings.

Pulpit and font of 1883.

St Mary's church is certainly an old one (a site of Christian worship since the twelfth century it is believed), but the font is actually a much younger one from 1883. Behind is an information board relating to a stone used in the church that has Roman origins.
