Yeovilton, a parish 2 m.  E. of Ilchester.  Its church retains but few features of interest, but notice should be taken of (1) the remains of the stoups in the N. porch and at the W. door; (2) the two piscinas (that in the chancel has a quaint carving below it); (3) the bracket in the S. wall of the nave, and the old corbels built into the walls of the chancel; (4) the fragments of ancient glass in the W. and E. windows, the former displaying the arms of Bishop Beckington, and the latter having the letters R.S. and the figure of a swan, the initials and rebus of Richard Swan (one of Bishop Beckington’s executors), who was rector here.  There is also an incised slab to the memory of Sir John Hunt of Speckington (d. 1626).  One of the bells dates from 1435.
