The Church of St Catherine is an Anglican parish church in St Catherine, Somerset, England. It was built in the 12th century as a chapel of ease of Bath and has been designated as a Grade II* listed building.
The manor of St Catherine belonged to Prior Cantlow of Bath Abbey in medieval times.[1] The church was remodelled by him around 1490, with the tower being added in 1503,[2] and underwent further changes in 1704, 1846 and 1880. The interior includes a 12th-century font and a 15th-century pulpit.
The church stands within the grounds of the 16th century St Catherine's Court, which is Grade I listed.
The parish is part of the benefice of Batheaston with St Catherine within the archdeaconry of Bath.[3] St Catherine's has been part of the parish since it was annexed in 1258.[4]
