St Michael

Burrowbridge as a place did not strictly speaking exist—aside from the toll bridge—until the foundation of the ecclesiastical parish. This was carved out of seven others when St Michaels District Church was built in 1838 by public subscription, after a previous aborted attempt. Thus Christians, and the Parish they founded, are both origin and raison d’être for today’s Burrowbridge.

St Bartholomew

The parish of Lyng serves a diverse population of around 350, and the ancient parish church of St Bartholomew overlooks the beautiful Somerset Levels with its vibrant farming communities of East Lyng, West Lyng and Outwood. There is a strong sense of community, warmth and friendship, which newcomers to the villages soon experience. The residents of the villages include people from all walks of life: a large number are retired, some work locally on farms, others in the nearby towns and villages, others are self-employed. Lyng has recently seen a number of younger families moving in.
