The Church of St Mary in Wedmore, Somerset, England is predominantly from the 15th century, although some 12th- and 13th-century work survives. It has been designated as a Grade I listed building.
The tower, which was built around 1400, with its set-back buttresses, includes triple two-light bell chamber windows; those to the centre are louvred, those to each side blank.
There is a wall painting of St Christopher, that dates from the late 15th century or possibly early 16th. This is unusual as few late paintings survived the ravages of the two Cromwells, Thomas and Oliver. The painting also features ships and a mermaid at the feet of the saint, odd additions redolent of the sea rather than a river, which are unique to this otherwise common subject of church painting.
