Background
Description
The church was built of knapped flint about 1349; the north chapel, built of brick, was added in the 16th century, and the porch dates from the 18th century. It has a slate roof on the south side, and clay tiles on the north. It was described in 1797 by Edward Hasted: "This church, to the credit of the patrons of it, who for a long succession of time have resided in the family seat almost adjoining to it, is remarkable for the neat and decent state in which it is kept. It is paved with white and black marble, the pews are regularly wainscoted, the windows adorned with coloured glass, and the ceiling ornamented with stucco...."
