The Anglican Church of St Mary in Compton Dando within the English county of Somerset dates from the 14th century. It is a Grade II* listed building.
The Gothic style church was originally built in the 14th century, but has been revised several times. It has a west three stage square tower supported by diagonal buttresses. There is a peal of six bells in the tower.[1]
There is a date of 1735 in the chancel, which is probably from one of the revisions, however most of the current fabric is from a Victorian restoration.[2]
Inside the church is a piscina.[2] The font and pulpit are from 1833.
The churchyard contains a sundial.
The parish is part of the benefice of Publow with Pensford, Compton Dando and Chelwood within the Diocese of Bath and Wells.[1]
The churchyard is also the scene for the fourth series of the ITV Bath-set crime drama McDonald & Dodds.
