The Anglican Church of St Michael in Seavington St Michael, Somerset, England was built in the 12th century. It is a Grade II* listed building. [1]
The church was built in the late 12th century. It was altered in the 15th century, including a new rood screen and windows, and again in the 19th century when a gallery was added and the vestry added. [1] [2]
The church is part of a benefice with the Church of St Peter and St Paul, South Petherton, [3] within the Diocese of Bath and Wells. [4]
The hamstone building has slate roofs with a bell turret at the western end. It has a three- bay nave and single-bay chancel which are supported by buttresses. [1]
Most of the interior fittings are from the Victorian restoration, but it does have a font from the 12th or 13th century and some fragments of medieval stained glass. [1]
On the south wall of the nave is a memorial plaque commemorating the men from the village who died in World War I. [5]
