Welcome to the Batcombe Parish Council Website

The Parish Council's website is continually being developed and will gradually provide more information about the parish of Batcombe, local organisations, news and events - as well as those documents the Parish Council is required to publish.  

BATCOMBE is a parish in the east of Somerset between Frome and Shepton Mallet, which consists of the villages of Batcombe and Westcombe together with a number of outlying hamlets and farmsteads.  At the centre of the parish lies St Mary's Church with its magnificent 16th century tower, the Three Horseshoes pub, and a community centre consisting of the award-winning Jubilee Hall and the Old School Rooms.  (To learn more about the Jubilee Hall and Old School Rooms click on the link to the Village Hall Trust website.)

Batcombe Film Society - The Last Viking

Date: Friday 13th November 2026

Time: 7.00 for 7.45pm

Venue: The Jubilee Hall, Batcombe 

The November film is The Last Viking (2025/116 min/15).  After 15 years in prison, bank robber Anker returns to claim the loot he entrusted to his brother after a botched heist.  But Manfred (a wonderfully eccentric Mads Mikkelsen) now believes he is John Lennon and has completely forgotten where he buried it.  This inventive Danish crime comedy pairs two superb performances with a darkly bizarre but heartfelt story. BFFC Insight: strong violence, bloody images, domestic abuse, threat, language.
