St Mary

From the evidence of the south transept the building would appear to date from the C14 and the stone effigies probably also date from this time.

In circa early C15 the nave was reconstructed and the south aisle added partially enclosing the transept.

C15 tower.

In the late C15/early C16 the north aisle was added destroying any evidence of a north transept.

In the early C16 the 2-storey north porch was built.

The rood screen was removed at the end of the C18, reputedly to Stover although the panelling is partly preserved.

East window of south aisle has C15 granite rebated frame and volcanic stone tracery and hoodmould but the mullions have been replaced in limestone.

The south- east window of south aisle appears to be completely C15 with granite frame and the rest volcanic stone.

Probably C16 oak studded door with central vertical rib.

The later C15/early C16 north arcade is in Beer-stone with Pevsner type-B piers, foliage capitals and moulded 4-centred arches.

C15 octagonal stone font with roll moulding at top and base of pedestal.

Some of the panelling from the C15 rood screen has been re-used in the chancel stalls.

There are 3 medieval stone effigies in the north aisle beneath the windows reputed to represent Sir John Dinham and his 2 wives which suggests they are circa early C14.

At the centre is another lady with a stiff head-dress, her feet resting on a wyvern and 4 angels supporting her.

This memorial is elaborately carved with niches and figures at the front.

Fragments of old glass survive re-used in the upper lights of the east window and in the central south aisle window.

The pulpit comes from Bradford on Avon and was presented in 1889.

This Church preserves a largely medieval fabric with the 2 different arcades and the stone effigies being of particular interest and the survival of some early windows relatively unusual.
