Church of St Catherine, Montacute, Medieval church in Montacute, England.
The Church of St Catherine stands in the middle of Middle Street, built from local hamstone with a prominent tower and traditional architectural features. The structure displays typical medieval building techniques with elements added over several centuries.
The church was founded in the 12th century and received several alterations over the following centuries. A major restoration took place in 1870.
The church holds memorials to the Phelips family, who shaped much of Montacute's history. These dedications remain visible throughout the interior spaces today.
The church is regularly open for visitors who want to explore its architecture and interior monuments. It is best reached on foot from the village center, as it sits in a central location.
The stone used in the church comes from the same quarry as the nearby Montacute House. This connection is often overlooked but directly links the church to the famous manor house.
