St Olaf's church, Poughill Grade I listed.
Poughill is mentioned in the Domesday book. The church is of exceptional interest and dates from the 14th century. It seats 300 persons and is dedicated to the Norwegian King and so-called Martyr, St Olaf (Olaf II of Norway). At the restoration in 1928 the foundations of the original Norman church were uncovered but nothing of this remains above ground. 
The west tower is late 14th early 15th C. of granite with crocketed pinnacles. The pillars on the north side and south arch of the nave are of Caen stone (14th century). Those of the south side are granite (15th century). 
The piscina and aumbry in the south chancel are 13th century. The font is from about 1400.
Inside the church is a wall of frescoes dating from about 1470, and depict St Christopher: they were discovered in 1894 beneath the whitewash. Such paintings were once common in churches. The Poughill accounts record the washing-out of the figures in 1550 at the time of the Reformation. According to the legend, St Christopher was a heathen giant who, on turning Christian, was instructed by a holy hermit to carry travellers over a dangerous ford, and who, one stormy night carried the child Jesus on his shoulder. The paintings were somewhat crudely restored.
The roof is a 15th Century Waggon roof with carved bosses. The benches have carved ends from the late 15th C.
The porch is in Perpendicular style with a massive 15th C oak door.

St Andrew's church, Stratton There was a Norman Church originally, the current church was built on top of it, and remains were  found in the 19th C. The font is definitely Norman and dates from the 12th century. The North Aisle of the church was under construction in the middle years of the 14th century. The tower and present South Aisle seem to have been built around the latter part of the 15th century although neither can be dated with precision. It has granite piers, whilst the North Arcade uses contrasting Polyphant stone.
The ceilings of the whole building are from the Tudor period, and the chancel was repaired in 1544.
There is a memorial brass to Sir John Arundel who died in 1561, which is now upright against the West wall. He is shown with his wives and children,
By 1888 a major restoration was necessary and some of the stonework of the building was taken down and rebuilt.
There is no mediaeval glass at Stratton. On the sill of the easternmost window of the North Aisle is a crossed legged effigy of an armoured knight in poor condition. This figure is carved in limestone from Somerset, possibly for Sir Reginald De Blanchminster who died in the late 13th century.
