It replaced one first installed around 1700. The church was restored several times during the 19th century. The carving of the centre mullion of the east window of the Lady chapel is a Lily crucifix,[4] a rare symbol of Anglican churches in England depicting Christ crucified on a lily, or holding such a plant.[5] The church includes a monument to John Popham,[6] died in 1607[7] having been Speaker of the House of Commons, Attorney General and Lord Chief Justice of England. It also has the first epitaph written in English on the tomb of Richard of Wellington a 14th-century priest. Previously they had always been written in Latin.[5] It is part of the Wellington and District Team Ministry within the Diocese of Bath and Wells.[8] See also
