Welcome! We are a small friendly church in the Quantock Towers Benefice. We hold regular services and have events, details of which you will find on the following pages and additional local information can be found on https://www.nettlecombewestsomerset.life/

We are fortunate to have organists (many amateurs) so we enjoy singing in the services and although we can be smallish in number we try our best! Our organ is a very good instrument and was totally renovated about 25 years ago and is regularly maintained - we are open anyone who can play  to come and join us! We also have a grand piano and at Harvest and Easter we usually invite the West Somerset Brass Band. 

We welcome anyone to our services and although at present we tend to be older adults, we do keep a children's area which is well used in special services and weddings. We have a hearing loop and a ramp access to the church but we plan to improve disabled access with our planned reording of the West end of the church to make easier access and more flexible usage. We have recently conserved 3 mediaeval effigies.

The church is well supported by the parish community. We are not in a village as the previous owners of Nettlecombe Court felt buildings spoilt the view! Our fete is held outside the church on the Court green, as well as in the church, and is well supported. Flower arrangers and cleaners make sure our church looks inviting and cared for. We try to hold a concert each year to bring music to the area and encourage local talent.

The church history is closely linked to Nettlecombe Court, situated next door, and is now an active Field Studies centre. There is a well researched guide available in the church, and a children's trail is available. Many visitors are people who have stayed at the Court when it was a school in the past or came to the Field Study centre from school. Please do look at our 3 recently conserved mediaeval effigies which are near the unusual seven sacramental font, only one of two outside East Anglia. We did use to use the oldest hallmarked chalice and paten but due to insurance costs this is now on permanent loan to the V&A museum in London.

The church is usually open for visitors but if you would like to check before you visit please contact us via  the telephone contacts given on this site to ensure there is no event/ service taking place.
