This church is the largest as well as one of the most interesting in Somerset, in a county famed for its rich inheritance of churches belonging to the Perpendicular period.

St. Cuthbert's is designed on the most impressive scale; its lovely tower has few equals even in Somerset; and the whole building bears testimony to the skill and artistic genius of the mediaeval craftsmen who built and adorned it.

A short meditation
"Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified....for the Lord your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you."
(Deuteronomy 31.6)
The Roof of St Cuthbert's shows a striking example of sixteenth-century builders. It contains some exceptionally fine wood carving, and is lavishly decorated with figures of angels, rosettes and shields.
