Church of St Andrew & St Mary, Pitminster

The lead covered spire is of octagonal shape and is connected to the tower via a quatrefoil parapet and two-light bell-opening.

To the right of the door on the porch side are two three light windows with right flanking stepped buttresses.

Such screens were largely removed in the aftermath of the English reformation as they were seen as remnants of Catholicism.

The pulpit is a handsome example of the early 17th century with a sounding board above it from the Bluecoat school in Frome; most likely originally created by London craftsman.

There are remains of medieval stained glass in upper lights of the lady chapel north window.

[3] The interior is distinguished by effigy tombs of three generations of the Colles family who were lords of the manor in the 16th and 17th centuries.
