The Anglican Church of the Holy Cross in Babcary, Somerset, England was built in the 14th century. It is a Grade II* listed building.[1]

History

The Church of the Holy Cross had its origins before the Norman Conquest, with a church being recorded in 1200.[2] The fabric dates from the 14th and 15th centuries with the chancel and north aisle being added in the 19th century by Benjamin Ferrey in 1875–76.[3] Further restoration was undertaken in the 1950s.[2]

In 1764 James Woodforde, the author of The Diary of a Country Parson, was the curate at Babcary.[4]

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

Architecture

The stone building has stone slate roofs. It consists of a two-bay chancel and three-bay nave with a north aisle.[1] The three-stage tower is supported by corner buttresses.[1] The tower contains a bell dating from 1753 and made by Thomas Bilbie of the Bilbie family.[6]

Inside the church are a 14th-century font and octagonal pulpit dating from 1632.[1]
