Description

The Church of St Mary, located on Stodmarsh Road in Wickhambreaux, is a Grade I listed building dating back to the 13th century. It underwent restoration with the nave being completed in 1888 and the chancel in 1891 by the architects Cowell and Bromley from Canterbury. The church is constructed from flint with stone quoins and features a tiled roof. At the west end, there is a wooden tile-hung bell turret, which showcases medieval timber and structure. Inside, the nave has three crown posts, while the chancel has two crown posts. The bell turret is supported by large cross braces at its base. Additionally, there is a Perpendicular screen, and one of the lancet windows contains grisaille glass.
