Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Infobox Historic building The Church of the Holy Cross in Middlezoy, Somerset, England dates from the 13th century and has been designated as a grade I listed building.[1]

William of Bitton II was the rector by 20 April 1263.[2] From the 13th to early 16th century, when it became a separate parish, Middlezoy was a chapelry of Sowy parish. The church was originally dedicated to St. Lawrence and later to St. Mary before adopting the current dedication in 1754.[3]

The church has a chancel and a nave with a south aisle and south porch, and a north chapel or vestry. The 3-stage west tower was built around 1483,[4] similar to that at Lyng. The tower contains six bells, including one of 1608, probably by George Purdue of Closworth.[3] The upper part of the tower was restored by Sall Strachey Historic Conservation. The work included replacing the pinnacles and sections of the pierced parapet.[5] On the stonework are hunky punks which have been severely damaged by the weather.[6]

The whole church has been renovated many times with a major restoration being undertaken in the 1860s to plans by Charles Knowles, with further repairs in 1908.[3]

The parish is part of the benefice of Middlezoy and Othery and Moorlinch with Stawell and Sutton Mallet, within the Glastonbury deanery.[7]
