The Anglican Church of the Holy Cross in Weston Bampfylde, Sparkford, Somerset, England, was built in the 13th century. It is a Grade II* listed building.[1]
The church was built in the 13th century and refurbished in the 15th. A Victorian restoration was carried out in the 19th century.[1]
Following an inspection in 2010 repair work was carried out on the stonework of the tower.[2]
