The Anglican Church of St Mary Magdalene in Barwick, Somerset, England was built in the 13th century. It is a Grade II* listed building.[1]
The church was built in the 13th century. During a Victorian restoration in 1885 the chancel was rebuilt.[1]
Because of the condition of the roofs of the nave, chancel and tower the church has been placed on the Heritage at Risk Register.[2]
The parish is part of the benefice of Yeovil Holy Trinity with Barwick within the Diocese of Bath and Wells.[3]
The hamstone building has clay tile roofs. It consists of a three-bay nave and two-bay chancel. The two-stage tower is unbuttressed.[1]
Inside the church is a 14th-century piscina and a pulpit from 1619.[1] The cylindrical fluted hamstone font is lead lined and decorated with cable moulding.[4]
