Description
The remaining tower of the demolished Church of St Mary, dating to the C15 and incorporating earlier fabric.
MATERIALS: knapped flint with stone dressings and Roman or early medieval brick.
PLAN: square.
EXTERIOR: an unbuttressed, roofless western tower is the only remaining part of the Church of St Mary. The tower has three stages demarcated by chamfered string courses and is constructed of flint with stone quoins and brick and stone dressings. The third stage (belfry) has two-light cusped bell openings with hood-moulds with carved label stops on each elevation. The three-centred tower arch on the east elevation has two chamfered orders in Roman or early medieval brick (probably reused) with a single, round-headed window above also with an early brick surround. The scars of two roof lines are apparent. The lower stage window opening on the west elevation has been partly destroyed, but a single lancet remains at the second stage.
