Church of St Bartholomew, Lyng, 14th-century parish church in East Lyng, England

The Church of St Bartholomew features Gothic architecture with stone walls, pointed arches, and medieval structural elements throughout its construction design.

The church dates from 1301 and stands on the location of an ancient fortress, later maintained by monks from Athelney Abbey until 1539.

This Grade I listed building maintains regular Anglican services while functioning as a central gathering place for East Lyng's religious ceremonies.

Visitors can access the church through the main entrance on weekdays between 9 AM and 4 PM, with additional hours during Sunday services.

The church's position on elevated ground provided protection from flooding, making it a geographical marker for centuries of Somerset inhabitants.
