About East Pennard ChurchAll Saints' Church is part of the benefice of Fosse Trinity which during its 14th year of vacancy is being supported by the Revd Canon Rosalind Paul. The Diocese of Bath and Wells intends that the Fosse Trinity group of churches will be grouped with Pilton, North Wootton and Croscombe for the purpose of appointing a new overall Priest in Charge. FosseTrinity has not had a designated priest since 2013 so this is an exciting time of change!
All Saints’ Church, East Pennard dates from the 14th century and is a grade I listed building. The roof was re-leaded in 2023 following a major fund raising appeal. The tower contains a clock made in 1788 by local man Thomas Higdon, recently restored and striking - but temperamental! There are five bells which are reputed to be the heaviest peal of five in existence. The Reredos has recently been restored and has some amazing tiles. Inside the church is a Norman Font and several stained-glass windows, also an altar screen and monuments to the Martins and Napiers. All Saints' Church belongs to a group of churches known as The Fosse Trinity Benefice which serve the communities of Ditcheat, Alhampton, East Pennard and Pylle parishes. For information relating to Benefice personnel, services, events, courses, groups see pages, and for the Fosse Trinity News please click here. |
