The Church of St Michael in Milverton, Somerset, England dates from the 13th century, on the site of an even earlier chapel, and has been designated as a Grade I listed building.[1]

It is built of red sandstone with Hamstone dressings. The carved benches date from the mid 16th century.[2][3]

In 1850 St Michael's was extended and repaired by Exeter-based architect John Hayward.[4]

The Anglican parish is part of the benefice of Milverton with Halse, Fitzhead and Ash Priors within the archdeaconry of Taunton.[5]
