The Anglican Church of St John the Baptist in North Cheriton, Somerset, England was built in the 14th century. It is a Grade II* listed building.[1]

History

The church was built in the 14th century. In the 19th it underwent Victorian restoration which included rebuilding much of the fabric of the building.[1]

The parish is part of the Camelot Churches benefice within the Diocese of Bath and Wells.[2][3]

Architecture

The stone building has hamstone dressings and clay tile roofs. It consists of a three-bay nave and two-bay chancel with a north aisle with attached organ chamber and vestry and a south porch. The two-stage tower is supported by corner buttresses and has survived from the 15th century.[1] The tower has a peal of five bells.[4]

The interior is largely from the 19th century but it does contain part of a screen from around 1500 which has been imported from the Church of St John the Baptist in Pilton.[1] The font may be from the 12th century.[1] The pulpit is from 1633.[5] Some of the stained glass is by Clayton and Bell.[5]
