BISHOPS CAUNDLE

Dedication Unknown

Bishops Caundle Church

This a most attractive roadside church serving the village around it.  The tower and nave are 15c, although the nave was restored in 1864 by W. Slater.  The chancel is 1300 in origin, but that too was altered and restored at the same time.

There is a Victorian carved stone reredos and a 15c octagonal font. The large memorial of 1815 commemorates the Daubeney and Herbert families.  Note also Charles II's coat of arms dated 1661(just one year after the Restoration - See also Trent)
