The Church of All Saints in West Camel, Somerset, England dates from the late 14th century and has been designated as a Grade I listed building.[1]
There had been a previous wooden church on the site since 995 until around 1100 when it was replaced by a small stone Norman church, which was added to over subsequent centuries.[2] The first church may have been founded by Muchelney Abbey.[3]
The tie-beam roof of the nave dates from the 15th century.[3] The tower holds six bells the oldest of which was cast in the 15th century.[2] The church underwent extensive Victorian restoration in the 1860s.[3]
The parish is part of the Cam Vale benefice within the Bruton and Cary deanery.[4]
