St Bartholomew's Church, Lostwithiel, 13th-century Grade I listed church in Lostwithiel, England
St Bartholomew's Church is a Grade I listed building dating to the 13th century in Lostwithiel. The structure features an octagonal screen at the base of the spire with former windows visible on four of the eight sides.
Construction of the tower began around 1250, with an early 14th-century spire added later. Additional architectural changes were made throughout the 1300s as the building evolved.
The church takes its name from Saint Bartholomew, its patron saint. Inside, you can see monuments from the Georgian period and a font carved with images of hunters and animals that date back centuries.
The church is open to visitors on weekdays and can be entered through the gate at the North Street end of Church Lane. The location is easily accessible from the town center and the grounds are straightforward to navigate.
The building includes a clerestory above the nave, which sets it apart from many other churches in the region. Inside, it houses six bells cast by Gillett & Johnston in 1924.
