Church Of St Denis

The Church of St. Denis is a Grade II* listed medieval church that has undergone alterations in the early 19th century and around 1875. It consists of a nave, chancel, west tower, and south porch, constructed from flint rubble with freestone quoins. The church features parapet gables adorned with mask-carved kneeler stones and has slated roofs, with a flat roof on the tower behind crenellated parapets.

The north and south doorways, likely part of the 12th century structure, have attached shafts with scalloped capitals. These doorways were raised and fitted with pointed arched heads around 1300. Significant 14th-century modifications include a three-stage tower with tall two-light belfry openings and a south porch with an arched doorway that also has attached shafts. The north and south windows are two-light and hood-moulded. Inside, the north doorway contains a late 14th-century ogee-headed image niche, and there is a chamfered square font dating to around 1300.

After a period of neglect, the medieval chancel was demolished around 1800. The current east window was constructed around 1875, along with other major changes, including a new arch-braced collar-beam roof, one truss of which is soffit-cusped to suggest a "chancel-arch." A brass epitaph commemorating Dorothe, wife of William Francklin (who died in 1596), is affixed to the north wall behind the pulpit. Flanking the east window are painted panels featuring the Lord's Prayer and the Ten Commandments.
