Church of St Nicholas

The Church of St Nicholas is a parish church located in Remenham Village. Originally built in the 14th century, it was rebuilt in 1838 on the site of an older church and underwent complete restoration from 1870 to 1872 by Ronald Plumbe. The church is constructed of flint with Bath stone dressings and features a tiled roof.

The building includes a three-bay nave, an apsidal chancel, and a west tower. In 1892, vestries were added to the north side of the chancel, and a south aisle porch and organ chamber were constructed in 1870. The tower has two stages, a deep string course, and an embattled parapet, with octagonal buttresses at the corners featuring a design of diapered stone and flint work.

The north wall of the nave has an early 14th-century chalk window at the east end, which has two trefoil lights with flowing tracery under a pointed head. This design is echoed in the windows of the later rebuilding. There is an arcade of three pointed arches on circular pillars on the south side of the nave, and the principal doorway is located at the west end of the south wall. The apse contains stained glass by Kempe and an elaborate iron screen from around 1870, adorned with vine trails and presented by Sir John Noble, a former owner of Park Place.

Among the monuments, three remain from the old church. Under the bell tower on the north wall is a brass memorial to Thomas Maryat, who died in 1591 at Vine Place, later known as Park Mace, and a brass for John Newman, a pastor who died in 1622 on the south wall. There is also a scroll pediment on the north wall of the nave dedicated to the Reverend Griffeths Gunnis, dated 1727.
