Ullingswick

[1] According to local archeological studies, there is possible evidence of earthworks resulting from an early timber castle, to the north of the former village hall (which no longer exists and has been built over) (grid reference SO58514932).

The village church, St Luke's, has a Norman nave, 13th century chancel, and Victorian porch and bell tower.

[6] Of note is a 16th Century memorial painting on the south wall, to John Hill (d.1590), owner of the nearby Lower Court.

The inscription reads, ""Here lyeth the body of John Hill gentleman heire to John Hill gent of the Nether courts who marryed the eldest daughter one of the co-heires of Hugh Brooke esquyer of Lounge Ashton (Long Ashton) in ye county of Somerset: lyneally descendinge from the house of ye Lord Cobham & had by her three sonns & two daughters: these armes came by hir and hee departed this lyffe the thirde daye of February in the XXXXlll yere of the raigne of oure soveraigne lady Quene Elizabeth Anno Domi 1590 upon whom the Lorde hathe mercy".

[11][12][13] Other notable crimes in Ullingswick from the Victorian era included an offence under the Turnpike Act in 1854, a bolting horse in 1867, an attempted suicide in 1899 and the death of a drunkard in 1901.
