A view of the north side, showing the striking square tower. Although it's thought there was a Saxon era church of some description on this site, the oldest parts of the current structure is believed to date from around the thirteenth century. A lot of it was built in the fifteenth and sixteenth, including the tower in around 1540 - one of the last of the great East Somerset Towers.
