Church of St Nicholas, Henstridge
Church of St Nicholas stands in Henstridge, Somerset, England. It was built in the 12th century and is a Grade II* listed building. The church was heavily restored in 1872–73 by James Mountford Allen, and the tower was rebuilt in 1900. It is part of the Abbas and Templecombe, Henstridge and Horsington parish in the Diocese of Bath and Wells.
The stone building has hamstone dressings and stone slate roofs. It features a four-bay nave, a three-bay chancel, and north and south aisles. The west tower is three stages high with corner buttresses and contains six bells, the oldest dating from 1615. The lychgate nearby is a World War I memorial.
Inside, most fittings are from the 19th century, but the font is from the 13th century, and some original arches survived the restoration. A tomb from 1463 with recumbent figures was reinstalled after the restoration.
