Religion, Churches, Interesting Places, Other Churches
The Church of St Margaret is a Grade I listed building, adjacent to Babington House in Babington, Somerset, England. The church is owned and operated by the St Margaret's, Babington, Charitable Trust, which is completely independent of the management of Babington House.
There may have been a Norman building on the site before the current church, which is thought to date from 1748 and was probably built by John Strahan or William Halfpenny, and is considered to be very similar in conception to Redland Chapel in Bristol, probably by John Strahan but completed by William Halfpenny. The building was commissioned by the Knatchbull family.
