Description

The Church of St Saviour, built between 1874 and 1875 by E C Robins, is designed in the French 13th century style using Kentish ragstone rubble. The church features wide lancet windows in the aisles and plate tracery in the clerestory. It consists of a nave, aisles, and a short lower chancel, with the north aisle gabled outwards and a one-storey link to the south side chapel or vestry. The square north-west tower has angle buttresses and arcading, topped by a central louvred lantern and a swept, conical shingled spire. Additionally, there are angle turrets with conical stone spirelets.
