Butcombe is a village and civil parish just north of Blagdon Lake, in North Somerset, England.
The Church of St. Michael and All Angels dates from the 15th century and is a Grade II* listed building.[1]
The village gave its name to the Butcombe Brewery, which is now based in Wrington.
The village is now populated by around 50 people and mainly consists of family-owned farmlands. It no longer has any commodities apart from a telephone and mailbox.
