Kilmersdon, a village 2 m.  S. from Radstock.  It lies prettily in a hollow at the foot of Ammerdown Park.  The church is a 15th cent.  Perp. building with a lofty W. tower which forms a graceful object in the vale.  The nave within and without bears traces of Norm. work.  Note corbels and scale work on S. external wall, and in the interior the small Norm. window.  In Perp. times the walls were raised, the old corbel-table being left in its original position.  The triple panelling to the tower arch and the reduplication of the chancel arch is a little peculiar.  A triangular lychgate of unusual design has lately been added to the churchyard.  There is an Elizabethan communion cup dated 1566. Ammerdown House (Ld.  Hylton) stands amongst the trees on the hill-side behind the village.  It is an Italian mansion, designed by Wyatt.  The summit of the hill above is crowned by a graceful memorial column with a glittering lantern.  As the hill is 800 feet high, it is a conspicuous landmark.

Kilton is a parish 7 m.  E.N.E. of Williton.  Its church has been rebuilt, but retains a good Perp. font, and some small brasses on the S. wall of the chancel.  Two communion chalices belonging to the church date from 1514 and 1572 respectively.  Nearer the coast is Lilstock church, of which only the chancel remains, serving as a mortuary chapel.

Kilve, a village on the Channel, 5 m.  E.N.E. of Williton, has had its name enshrined in the verse of both Southey and Wordsworth.  From the shore some pretty coast views are obtainable.  Its church retains its stoup, piscina, and ancient font, and there is some 15th cent. woodwork near the entrance to the tower.  Close to the church are the remains of a chantry.  Though many of the walls are still standing, it is rather difficult to trace the plan.

Kingsbury Episcopi, 2-1/2 m.  N.W. of Martock, is a village wearing an air of antiquity, and possessing a fine church.  The church tower, with double belfry windows, closely resembles that of its neighbour at Huish Episcopi.  It is inferior in its buttresses and mouldings, but has a better W. window.  The elaborate crown produces a more top-heavy effect than at Huish.  The niches which adorn the tower are noticeable for retaining in many cases their figures, which are seated (cp.  Ile Abbots).  The tower arch is finely panelled with niches on the E. face, and there is a clerestory (note the angel corbels below the roof).  The piers of the chancel and transeptal arches are ornamented with foliage, and the chancel windows are large, with traceried transoms.  Note (1) the screen; (2) the fragments of ancient glass in the N. transept; (3) the piscina in the S. chapel; (4) the sacristy below the E. window (as at N. Petherton and Langport); (5) the small crucifix over the S. porch (which originally had a parvise).
