Church of St Mary, Medieval church in Luccombe, England
The Church of St Mary features roughcast stone walls, a squared red sandstone vestry, and a west tower made of random rubble red sandstone.
The chancel of St Mary's Church dates from 1300, while the nave and tower were constructed around 1450, with an aisle added in 1530.
The interior contains historical elements including a Jacobean pulpit, chair, and medieval rood screen that reflect traditional Anglican worship practices through centuries.
The church maintains its role as an active Anglican parish within the benefice of Porlock and Porlock Weir, serving the communities of Stoke Pero and Selworthy.
The three-stage tower displays ornamental gargoyles and string courses, topped with crenellations that demonstrate medieval architectural craftsmanship.
