Church Of St Michael

The Church of St Michael is a building of group value, with a history spanning several centuries. The origins of the church lie in a 11th-century doorway, followed by the construction of the nave and chancel in the 12th century. The chancel was largely rebuilt in the early 13th century, with a south transept and west tower added shortly after. A remodelling of the transept and windows occurred in the 14th century, and a north aisle was added in 1863, accompanied by a 19th-century restoration.

The church is built of roughcast, likely on a flint base with stone dressings. The tower is constructed of random stone and unknapped flint, also with stone dressings. The roofs are covered with old plain tiles, although the tower roof is not visible. The church comprises a 3-bay nave, chancel, south transept, north aisle, and a west tower. A porch, with a red brick base and roughcast timber framing above, is situated to the left of the center. The porch includes re-sited 14th-century trefoil wood tracery and a 19th-century ribbed and studded door within a flattened 2-centered archway, itself featuring a round-topped doorway with moulding. A water-stoup is positioned to the right. A 15th-century two-light Y-tracery window is on the right side of the nave. The transept has a 19th-century two-light Y-tracery window on the left return, a three-light Reticulated tracery window to the front, and two lancets on the right return. Other notable windows include a paired lancet with round heads, a roll-moulded mullion, and a damaged hood-mould to the left of the chancel, a 2-center arched doorway to the centre of the chancel with foliated caps to the columns and damaged carved heads to the ends of the hood mould, and a 19th-century lancet to the right. The tower features a clock face, louvred openings, and a battlemented parapet. The east end of the chancel has a 19th-century three-light Y-tracery window with ogee-shaped top and carved faces to the hood mould; a single lancet is at the rear of the chancel. An organ bay incorporates what is probably a reset 15th-century paired cusped lancet. The north aisle features multiple 19th-century lancets and a reset round-topped lancet to the west end. A stair turret and angle buttress are visible on the north side of the tower. The west side of the tower has a Perpendicular window and a louvred opening.

The interior contains a shell-carved piscina, a 19th-century reredos, Perpendicular-style panelling, 19th-century stained glass to the chancel windows, a 19th-century fling-post roof to the chancel and transept, a 19th-century two-centered chancel arch, a Tudor-arched stone doorway with a Tudor-arched stone niche above, and a circular font likely dating to the 12th century, set upon a 19th-century octagonal base.
