The Church of St. Mary, known as The Minster, in the ancient

St. Mary's Church in Ilminster, South Somerset, flying the flag for Armed Forces Day. |
Built of Ham stone and standing on a slope in the centre of
the town, it dates from the fifteenth century.
Rather surprisingly this fine looking church only receives 3 stars in
Simon Jenkins’ England’s Thousand Best
Churches (Penguin Books, 2009).
However, Pevsner describes it as: ". . . impressive, large, and
consistently designed . . .".
