The 'Church of All Saints in Nynehead, Somerset, England dates from the 14th century and has been designated as a Grade I listed building.[1]
The church is a small structure built of mostly of local red Permo-Triassic rock,[2] probably on the site of an earlier church. In 1091 the manor and church were granted to Montacute Priory.[3]
The two-stage square tower was built in the late 14th century and contains six bells, the oldest of which was cast around 1500.[4]
The interior of the church contains some monuments to the Sanford family of Nynehead Court.[5]
The church had significant restoration carried out in 1869.[6]
The parish is part of the Wellington and district benefice within theTone deanery.[7]
