Church of St Bartholomew


"For the Souls Lost to the Sky"

The 12th-century Church of St Bartholomew also called the Fleet Air Arm’s Memorial Church is located in the lovely parish of Yeovilton, Somerset, England. The Norman building with Victorian influences was constructed using local lias and Hamstone dressings. The chancel comprises a 14th-century piscine and attractive 15th-century stained glass. The 15th-century font is placed within the nave. The tower consists of six bells with the oldest being cast circa 1430 by the Exeter Bell foundry. In the 20th-century the neglected church was renovated and converted into the Fleet Air Arm’s Memorial Church. The beautiful churchyard contains 15 graves of the brave British and Commonwealth air forces from the nearby air base who were slain by World War II. The monument has been listed as a Grade II building by English Heritage.
