About Holy Cross Church
Holy Cross Church is a Church of England parish church in Thornfalcon, Taunton, Somerset, with an address on Church Lane. It serves a parish joined with Creech St Michael and Ruishton in the Taunton deanery. Its architectural and historic importance is recognised through Grade I listing.
The present structure originated in the early fourteenth century and underwent restoration under Benjamin Ferrey in 1882. Its font belonged to a previous place of worship erected there during the late 1200s. Some masonry from this predecessor may have been incorporated into the walls around the nave and chancel. Five bells hang in the tower, with the earliest dating to 1609.
