Description

The remains of the Church of St Mary consist of a roofless nave, chancel, south porch, and the remnants of a west tower. The long chancel dates from around 1300 and features a large four-light east window with intersecting tracery. The nave and chancel have windows with Y-tracery, and there is a south window from the 15th century. A doorway from around 1300 is also present, along with the west tower, which dates to the same period. Originally, there were fragments of 15th-century painted glass. The structure is built from flint rubble with stone dressings.
