Norman/|Gothic

The historic Church of St Peter and St Paul in North Curry, a village in Somerset, England. It's a prominent medieval parish church often called the "Cathedral of the Moors" due to its impressive size and grandeur relative to the surrounding low-lying Somerset Levels landscape.The church is Grade I listed by Historic England, The main structure visible today dates primarily from around 1300, featuring elements like the lower tower stages, transepts, and nave in a transitional Norman-to-Gothic style. Only the north doorway survives from the original 9tn century Norman building. It's known for its striking architecture, including a distinctive tower, ornate porch with statuary, large window.
