St Mary's Church

United Benefice of Publow with Pensford, Compton Dando and Chelwood

About

Whilst there is no doubt that a Christian church has existed in Compton Dando since the 12th century, the church as we see it today is of 14th century origin, much restored during the last two hundred and fifty years. For further information, there is a booklet available in the church.
