Another view of the church shown in Image, with its battlemented C14 tower on the south side. "No-one could call the W front pretty", says Pevsner in 1958, continuing: "the imitation Gothic tracery here is monstrously ignorant and aesthetically of no value", but http://webapp1.somerset.gov.uk/her/details.asp?prn=34660 explains "West porch ... added, restored 1960-2 after World War 2 damage, West windows rebuilt 1967", so perhaps the appearance has changed since. It does look a little odd, however.
