About this Church
A stone-spired landmark
This beautiful fifteenth-century, stone-spired church is a landmark in a fold in the hills just below Dartmoor and it has wonderful views to the south.
St Mary's is mainly of the fifteenth century and the tower and stone spire remain largely unaltered. Inside, the furnishings are mostly Victorian, as are the memorials that line the church walls including one to the widow 'Admonition Strode'.

Facilities & Hire
North Huish Church is available to hire for events and is a unique and beautiful venue.
The church has electricity and running water but due to its historic nature there is no heating or toilet facilities, so thought needs to be given for events longer than a couple of hours (e.g. portaloo hire).
The maximum capacity of St Mary's is 170 people including performers, volunteers and staff.
