St. Mary the Virgin Churchyard

Memorials	:	0
Location	:	East Brent, Sedgemoor District, England
Coordinate	:	51.2624370, -2.9418620
Description	:	The village of East Brent dates from the Anglo-Saxon period and appeared in the Domesday Book of 1086. The present church of St Mary the Virgin dates from around 1300 but we know there was an earlier church because a rector was recorded in 1190. The tower is unchanged from the 15th century when it was built. It is narrower than the usual chunky Somerset towers and topped by an elegant spire, an unusual feature for Somerset. The chancel was rebuilt in 1840-5. The churchyard extends west from the church building. The earliest recorded burial is from 1558.
