Church Of St George

The Church of St. George is a parish church that is now no longer in use. It is believed to have Saxon origins, with 13th-century windows. The church was restored between 1879 and 1880 by Joseph Clarke. It is constructed from flint with red brick bands in the east gable, featuring a plain tiled roof and a wooden bell turret topped with a shingled spire. The building includes a chancel, nave, and a south porch. The nave has angle buttresses at both the east and west ends. The brickwork on the east end may date back to the 17th century, as it consists of small bricks arranged in an irregular bond, possibly predating the 1880 restoration. The south porch was added in the 19th century, while the inner doorway is from the 14th century, featuring fillet moulding on the shafts and a large hood mould. Inside, there are south lancet windows in both the nave and chancel, with 13th-century reveals, and those in the chancel are set within blank arcading. The west window is trefoiled. The chancel arch, added in 1879, has a foliaged chamfered design on heavy imposts supported by engraved shafts. There is also a round-headed recess in the south wall of the nave. At the time of the survey, the church was in the process of being converted for domestic use.
