Church of St Mary

The Church of St. Mary is a chapel-of-ease built in 1870. It features regularly coursed and dressed rock-faced limestone rubble with ashlar dressings, topped with a machine tile roof that has ornamental cresting and an iron cross on the east gable end. The church consists of a single cell that combines the nave and chancel, along with a west bellcote and a north porch. The north side has a broad cusped lancet window to the east and paired broad cusped lancets east of a pointed doorway, which is sheltered by a bracketed gabled porch. There is a continuous moulded cill band along this side. The gabled west bellcote has a single cusped opening that houses a bell, while the east window features three stepped broad cusped lancets. Inside, the nave and chancel have a trussed rafter roof, and the rubblestone walls are accented with ashlar banding. Most of the fittings and furnishings, including a small octagonal font and two sedilia and a piscina in the south wall, date from the time of the church's construction. Originally a dependent chapelry of Clun, Clunton became a chapel-of-ease to Clunbury when it separated from Clun in 1341. It is unclear if the current building is on the same site as the medieval chapel.
