Chulmleigh parish church (St. Mary Magdalen) was formerly a collegiate church, with seven prebends founded at an unknown date. It was entirely rebuilt in the 15th cent., and has a very fine tower, restored in 1881. The interior is spacious, with lofty nave arcades and good wagon roofs with carved bosses and angels on the wall-plates. The chancel was rebuilt, and four memorial windows inserted, in 1860. A fine rood-screen, in perfect condition, with its vaulting and cornices complete, extends across nave and aisles.
