The Anglican Church of St Pancras in West Bagborough, Somerset, England was built in the 15th century. It is a Grade II* listed building.[1]
The church was built in the 15th century with additions 1643 and a Victorian restoration in 1872. The north aisle was added in 1839. The organ and communion rails were brought from a church at Brompton Ralph in 1910.[1] Further restoration was undertaken in 1923 by Ninian Comper.[2]
The church is away from the main village, close to Bagborough House. The location of the church away from the village is believed to be a result of an outbreak of Black Death, when may of the villagers died. They then abandoned the area around the church and rebuilt houses further down the hill.[3] The lychgate is dedicated to the memory of Robert Brooke-Popham.[4]
The parish is part of the benefice of Bishop's Lydeard with Lydeard Saint Lawrence, Combe Florey and Cothelstone within the Diocese of Bath and Wells.[2]
The red sandstone building has a tiled roof. It consists of a chancel, a nave and aisle each with three bays with wagon roofs. The south porch was added in 1643. The three-stage west tower is supported by diagonal buttresses.[1] The tower has six bells.[5]
Inside the church is a tablet with the names of the men from the village who died in World War I.[6]
