North Cadbury is a village 5 miles (8 km) west of Wincanton in the South Somerset district of Somerset, England. It shares its parish with nearby Yarlington.
The Church of St. Michael the Archangel dates mostly from 1417, however the tower is from a few years earlier. It has been designated by English Heritage as a grade I listed building.[1]
North Cadbury Court is a country house built around 1580-1610, by Sir Francis Hastings,[2] who inherited the estate from his father in 1544.[3]
