Description

The Church of St Margaret is a primarily 14th century building constructed from random flint and rubble, featuring stone dressings. The clerestorey and tie-beam roof date from the 15th century, as does the south porch. The square tower, built around 1300, has a castellated parapet, stone quoins, and angle buttresses. The south aisle also features a castellated parapet. The south porch is made of rough hewn timber with arched braces. The chancel roof is from the 20th century and is tiled. Only the lower part of the chancel screen remains, but several traceried panels from it have been incorporated into the Rectory, now known as Bridge House. There are some 15th century poppy bead bench ends, and the early 15th century octagonal font has carved panels. On the north wall, there are remnants of a medieval painting of St Christopher. The Church of St Margaret, Bridge House, and No 1 form a group.
