The Anglican Church of St Nicholas in Corfe, Somerset, England was built in the Norman period and rebuilt in 1842. It is a Grade II* listed building.[1]

History

The Church of St Nicholas is a 1842 rebuilding, by Benjamin Ferrey of a Norman church on the same site.[1] The chancel arch and nave arcade are neo-Romanesque and, along with two corbels, have survived from the design of the original building.[2]

The south aisle was added and tower rebuilt in 1858 by Charles Edmund Giles.[3] Stained glass by James Powell and Sons was installed in the 1850s.[4]

In 1969 the chancel was further restored.[1]

The parish is part of the Blackdown benefice within the Diocese of Bath and Wells.[5]

Architecture

The church is built of Blue Lias with stone dressing and a slate roof. It has a four-bay nave, a south aisle and a chancel. The three-stage tower has a pyramidal roof.[1]

Inside the church the Norman white stone font survives.[6][7]

The churchyard includes an unidentified chest tomb from around 1860,[8] and one for the Brown family from the late 18th century.[9]
