Church Of St Mary

The Church of St Mary in Nackington is a Grade I listed building constructed of flint with brick patching. It features a chancel with a south or mortuary chapel belonging to the Miles family, a nave, a north porch, and a west tower topped with a spire. The nave is from the Norman period, and its windows are made of Caen stone. The chancel dates back to the 13th century, as does the tower, except for the upper part which is made of brick, and the spire, which was added in the 18th century along with the south chapel. The north porch was built in the 19th century. The north window of the chancel includes some 13th-century stained glass, believed by some to have originated from Canterbury Cathedral. Inside, there is a piscina, and the nave features a crown post roof. The churchyard contains several 18th-century headstones with skull and cherub motifs.
