The United Reformed Church is a redundant 19th-century church, located in the village of Stoke-sub-Hamdon in the English county of Somerset. It was built in 1865-66 and closed for religious use in 2017. The church has been a Grade II* listed since 1987.[1]

History

Stoke-sub-Hamdon's United Reformed Church, originally known as the Congregational Church, was built in 1865-66 to replace a converted barn chapel, which had been used by Congregationalists since at least 1851. Non-conformity worshippers had been present in the village since as early as 1689.[2] The church was designed by Robert C. Bennett of Weymouth and cost £1,595 to build. The foundation stone was laid on 25 October 1865 by Samuel Morley.[3]

The church was completed during 1866 by the builder Mr Reynolds of Weymouth, and the opening services were held on 6 September.[4] It was enlarged in 1875, which included the adding of a schoolroom.[2] The church continued to serve until 2017, with the final service being held on 7 January.[5]

Architecture

The church is built of Hamstone, sourced from nearby Ham Hill, with a Welsh slate roof. It is designed in a 13th-14th century Gothic style.[1]
