The Church of St Nicholas in Henstridge, Somerset, England was built in the 12th century. It is a Grade II* listed building.[1]
The church was built in the 12th century. It underwent significant Victorian restoration between 1872 and 1873 by James Mountford Allen.[1] [2] The tower was rebuilt in 1900.[3]
The parish is part of the benefice of Abbas and Templecombe, Henstridge and Horsington within the Diocese of Bath and Wells.[4]
The stone building has hamstone dressings and stone slate roofs. It has a four-bay nave and three-bay chancel with north and south aisles. The three-stage west tower is supported by corner buttresses.[1] The tower has six bells the oldest of which dates from 1615.[5] The lychgate is one of the memorials to the dead of World War I in the village.[6]
The interior fittings are mostly from the 19th century but the font is from the 13th century and some of the original arches have survived the 19th century restoration.[1] A tomb from 1463 with recumbent figures was reinstalled in the church after the restoration.[7]
