The Church of St Mary the Virgin at East Stoke in Stoke-sub-Hamdon, Somerset, England dates from the 12th century.
[2] Much of the church, including the nave and chancel with their stone carving are Norman,[3] the structure being supported by pilaster buttresses.
It shows various medieval carving including abstract corbels, an astrological tympanum, and St Michael slaying the dragon.
[5][6] The upper part of the tower was built in the 13th century with the parapet being added in the 15th.
[7] Two of the Grade II* listed 17th-century monuments in the churchyard have suffered from subsidence and as a result rising damp has caused salt crystallisation which is affecting the inscriptions.
