Historic Churches in Somerset

St Peter's Church in Williton dates to at least the 12th century and may have been founded as an act of atonement for the murder of St Thomas Becket. The church was heavily restored in 1856 but many medieval features remain including a pulpit made from a medieval screen.

St Mary Magdalene church dates to the 12th century, though most of the present building is 14th and 15th-century work. Look for the Norman doorway and font, and exceptional 13th-century ironwork on the door. The church boasts one of only 4 royal coats of arms to James I in an English church.
