*************
North Cadbury is a village 5 miles (8 km) west of Wincanton in the River Cam in the South Somerset district of Somerset, England. It shares its parish with nearby Yarlington and includes the village of Galhampton,[2] which got its name from the settlement of the rent-paying peasants,[3] and the hamlet of Woolston.
The Church of St Michael in North Cadbury, Somerset, England dates from 1417,[2] although the tower was built a few years earlier. It has been designated as a Grade I listed building.[1]
In 1423 Lord and Lady de Botreaux were granted a royal licence to form a college of seven chaplains.[3] As a result the nave and chancel were rebuilt although the earlier three-stage tower was left intact.[4]
In the 17th century the church was under the patronage of Emmanuel College, Cambridge.[5]
The church includes elaborately carved bench ends dating from the 1530s. The decoration includes not just religious imagery but also birds and animals along with local people at work.[6]
During the 1980s the interior fittings and decoration of the church were damaged beyond repair. The local sculptor John Richardson designed modern figures to replace them. Some controversy arose about the figures and they were eventually placed on the wall of the adjacent North Cadbury Court which overlooks the churchyard.[7]
The parish is part of the Camelot Parishes benefice within the Bruton and Cary deanery.[8]
