Introduction
and bestowed on the Duchy of Cornwall, the Prince of Wales, in right of the said Duchy, being lord of the manor. The Church is pleasantly situated on the brow of a hill, and presents a contrast to those which we have lately described, in having a central embattled tower, with pinnacles. The font is Norman, and square. On the north side of the tower, which contains five bells, are two finely preserved zigzag arches. The west window is of the decorated period, and contains stained glass. There are four shields in the mouldings: one of the Abbey of Bath; another depicting a bugle horn; the third a bow; and the fourth a quiver of arrows. In the porch is a small decorated canopy, and near the altar a piscina. The south chapel has a square-headed decorated window, and on the wall between it and the nave is a figure of an angel supporting a coat-of-arms. Above is a window divided into two compartments, which contains some ancient stained glass. The church was thoroughly repaired in 1840, when sixty additional sittings were obtained. In the graveyard is a decaying recumbent effigy, which probably once occupied an altar-tomb in the chapel.
The church contains the remains of a stone coffin – presumable the This document contains transcriptions of inscriptions on memorials at St ‘recumbent effigy’ - which the histories suggest dates from the 13th Peter’s church, Englishcombe near Bath. century.

The inference seems to be that the present church has been erected on the site of some ecclesiastical edifice existing at a remote period on the same spot. Stone coffins have, from time to time, in the memory of persons now living, been discovered in this parish during the last thirty-five years, in draining a field belonging to John Cottle, Esq., of Hatfield-place.

Englishcombe, nr Bath – Memorial Inscriptions Overall Layout The churchyard is on all four sides of the church. A survey was started out in about 2002 but never completed. No sexton’s book describing who is buried where seems to have survived. In the absence of this the original
survey divided the churchyard into arbitrary areas A-L with numbers then
assigned to the surviving memorials.
The northern side of the churchyard had the graves arranged in a grid aligned with the line of the northern wall of the church. The graves in the southern area are quite sparse but also seem to be arranged in a grid.
