St John The Baptist
Bristol Road, Pawlett, Somerset, TA6 4RX Many thanks to ‘Mrs Doris’ who comes into school weekly to take an assembly.
For Parish enquiries please contact: Revd Doris Goddard The Vicarage Rye Puriton TA7 8BZ Tel: 01278 683500 Email rev.doris.goddard@btinternet.com The church dates back to Norman times, about the eleventh century, though a church was probably here in Saxon times, a thousand years ago. It was thought to have been a stopping place on pilgrimages to Glastonbury. It has an unusual 3-sided communion rail at the altar, and still has the old box pews, containing pegs for hats when men wore hats to church. |
