Buildings Church The Church of St Margaret is largely built of Blue Lias with Doulting Stone arcade, and probably dates from the 13th century although parts are as late as the 16th or 17th century. However, as important as the church itself, is its site. This is certainly not the first church on this site, as attested by the Norman font, of late 11th or 12th century date; and because very many rural churches were merely rebuilt by the Normans, very often with stone replacing an original timber structure, it is possible to be very confident that there would have been an Anglo-Saxon church on this site by the year 1000 at the latest. The five bells were cast in 1708 by the Bilbies of Chew Stoke. It includes the coat of arms of Simon Seward (Rector 1514–59) over the doorway. The church is a Grade I listed building Grade II listed buildings References External links Map of Hinton Blewitt circa 1900 Mendip Hills Civil parishes in Somerset Villages in Bath and North East Somerset
