Description

Sutton Mallet Church is an Anglican church built in 1829 by Richard Carver, the County architect and surveyor, on a medieval site that incorporates some reused 15th-century features. The church is constructed of coursed rubble with slate roofs and coped verges. It features slender two-stage buttresses with offsets. The architectural style is Gothic, with a nave that includes a small south porch, a small polygonal chancel, and a slender west tower.

The tower has a moulded string below the parapet, which rises to form a 'pediment' on each face. It has deep buttresses on the west side, an arch above, and a recessed three-light Perpendicular west window, along with two-light Perpendicular windows in the bell chamber. The three-bay nave is adorned with tall two-light stone-mullioned windows, each light topped with a 4-centred head, labels, and diamond-paned leaded lights.

The gabled ashlar south porch has slender buttresses and features a 4-centred head outer door opening, with 4-centred head recesses on each side. The chancel has a cinque-partite roof and a reused three-light Perpendicular window with a label and diamond-paned leaded lights. Inside, the church contains coeval box pews, a two-decker pulpit, and a font. The altar rails from the 17th century have been reused from the earlier church, and there are two 17th-century bells.
