The Church of St Peter in Evercreech, Somerset, England, dates from the 14th century and is a Grade I listed building.
The three-stage tower has set-back buttresses ascending to pinnacles, with a very tall transomed two-light bell-chamber with windows on each face The embattled parapet has quatrefoil piercing, with big corner pinnacles and smaller intermediate pinnacles. The four-light west window has extensively restored tracery. This tower is of the East Mendip type, and was completed around 1462.
On the north wall of the tower is a roll of honour to victims of World War I. It is within a rectangular wooden case with a glazed door crowned by a triangular pediment and plaque below.
The clock face features an unusual mistake as it is missing the X (10) and instead has two XII (12).
