St Stephen's Church, Pamphill, Parish church in Pamphill, England.

St Stephen's Church features a forty-foot tower built with Studland sandstone and Purbeck Stone, displaying Gothic architectural elements throughout its structure.

The current church, completed in 1907, stands on the site of an earlier church from 1229, funded by John de Lacy after receiving Kingston Lacy manor.

The east window depicts Ralph Bankes with Christ and his sisters, incorporating biblical scenes of Mary and Martha, the Good Shepherd, and Storm Calming.

The church grounds remain unconsecrated and do not function as a burial site, with a commemorative stone cross positioned at the front entrance.

Eight Bankes family pews at the back of the church feature an astronomical clock replica from Wimborne Minster and fleur-de-lys carvings.
