Location: Chilton Cantelo, South Somerset, Somerset, South West England, England, United Kingdom
In the parish of Chilton Cantelo, Somerset | c13th, Grade 1.
Interior includes Jacobean furnishings. Box pews and pulpit with a tester from the c17th
Although lacking a tower, it has a rare ‘lantern’ bellcote, likely added in the late 15th or early c16th
One of only 6 churches in England dedicated to this Spanish Saint
The recent dating of the treble bell (1290) makes it quite a remarkable piece quite possibly one of the oldest still hanging in England.
