Description
The Church of St Nicholas is a parish church that dates back to the 13th century, with significant restoration carried out in the 19th century. It features a late 19th-century vestry and porch. The building is constructed from flint and stone, topped with a tile roof. It has an aisleless nave and chancel, a north vestry built in 1894, and a south porch. The roof is plain, and there is a stone bell turret located at the west end.
The exterior showcases walls made of flint with stone rubble, flint with brick bands, some coursed knapped flint, and areas that are rendered. There are stepped buttresses on the nave, with a diagonal buttress at the west end. A small late-medieval two-light window can be found in the south wall of the nave, while the other windows are Victorian-Perpendicular style with three lights.
Inside, the church is plain and features Victorian fittings. There are wall monuments dating from 1778, 1784, 1788, 1846, 1847, and 1878, as well as a floor slab from 1806. Notably, Henry White, who was the brother of Gilbert White of Selborne, served as the rector from 1762 to 1788.
