Church of St Mary the Virgin

The Church of St Mary the Virgin is a parish church dating from the 15th century and later. It is constructed of flint with ashlar and some brick dressings, topped with lead roofs. The church features a west tower, an aisleless nave with a south porch, and a chancel that has an organ extension to the north. The 15th-century west tower is supported by diagonal buttresses and includes a large west window with Victorian tracery. It has two-light bell-openings with Perpendicular tracery, a parapet adorned with crow-stepped crenellations, gargoyles, and carved inscriptions featuring heraldry on the eastern face. A stair turret is located to the north.

The nave contains two three-light windows with cusped Y-tracery and two three-light Perpendicular windows, all of which have been restored. The chancel features a modern traceried east window and two two-light Perpendicular windows on the south side. The porch, rebuilt in the 16th century, incorporates some original openings that have been re-set. Inside, there is a 15th-century tower-arch made up of three plain chamfered orders on semicircular responds, and a similar chancel arch on faceted responds. A blocked former rood stair doorway with traceried spandrels is located to the north, while a simple piscina is found in the south nave and a trefoil piscina is situated in the chancel.

Notable interior features include a wall monument in stone dedicated to the Blondevile family, likely to Thomas, dating from around 1600. This monument consists of three panels divided by pilasters and flanked by columns topped with obelisks, and it has a semicircular-headed pediment with a blank tympanum. The central panel depicts a kneeling figure, presumably Thomas Blondevile, accompanied by three female weepers in the left panel. The right panel contains a brass plaque, likely re-set, featuring kneeling effigies of Edward (who died in 1568), Radulph (who died in 1514), and Richard (who died in 1490) Blondevile, along with a rhyming inscription and heraldic shields beneath the plaque. The church also boasts fine 15th-century poppy head bench ends.
