St Mary, St Cuthberga and All Saints, Witchampton
The church is a large handsome edifice in the later English style, with a square tower, which is the only remaining part of the original fabric erected in the 14th century.
All but the brown and grey stone 15c tower is Victorian 1833 - 44. The construction is banded stone and flint. There is a lectern of 1912 carved as a bunch of lilies and an impressive organ in the chancel.
Throughout the village there are lots of interesting cottages, many with thatched roofs and pretty gardens and also remains of an abbey.
