Description
The Church of St Bartholomew was built between 1771 and 1773 for William Lord Craven of Combe Abbey. It features a nave with a sanctuary apse and a recessed west porch, and is attributed to the architect Robert Adam. The church is constructed of ashlar stone with a cement slurry finish. It includes a north transept that leads to a vestry with semicircular ends. Inside, there is a coved ceiling adorned with garlands and medallions in relief, along with similar decorative wall features. The east end has niches that flank alabaster columns topped with Tower of the Winds capitals. A Greek Ionic alabaster screen is located on the north side, and there is a Madonna and Child window at the east. Additionally, the church has a west gallery. The Church and Vicarage are recognized as a group.
