Church of St Nicholas

The Church of St Nicholas is a Grade I parish church located in a 'deserted' village, dating back to the Saxon period around 1064, with features from the 13th century and restoration work completed in 1853, which included the east and west walls. The church has flint walls with stone dressings, some areas are plastered, and the chancel displays coursed work with fine galletting. Notable architectural elements include one Saxon window (now filled) with a deep exterior splay and cable decoration, the east gable featuring vertical and horizontal lesenes, 13th-century lancets, and a coupled 16th-century window. There are also blocked north and south nave doorways with pointed arches, a small blocked priest's door, thin Victorian buttresses at the west end, and a stone bell turret. The roof is tiled.

The church consists of an aisleless nave and chancel in their original form, with a tall Saxon chancel arch featuring moulded impost blocks and recessed 14th-century arches on each side. These arches connect to recesses at the east end of the nave, each containing a window. There is a small piscina located south of the altar and a stone tub font. Inside, there is a wall monument from 1824 and the base of a large monument in front of the former south door, dating from 1763. In the chancel, there is an Elizabethan classical tomb monument from 1577, designed in three bays with Corinthian Order, featuring a lower section with commemorative inscribed panels from the 20th century dedicated to the Henslow family. A distinctive feature of the church is a series of early 18th-century style furnishings made of pinewood, likely from 1853, which includes communion rails, a three-decker pulpit, a squire's pew, and a western gallery above the panelled lobby of the west entrance.
