Church of St Botolph

The Church of St. Botolph is a Grade II* listed building located in Swyncombe. It dates from the late 11th century and underwent restorations in 1831 and by Ferrey in 1850. The church is constructed of flint coursed rubble featuring herringbone work, with limestone ashlar dressings, and has a gabled old tile roof. The structure includes a nave with an apsidal chancel.

At the east end, there are two lancet windows by Ferrey that imitate a Norman lancet to the north. The south wall of the nave features an early 14th-century two-light window, an Early English lancet to the west of a blocked Norman round arch, and two lancets along with a gabled south porch that leads to a 19th-century plank door, topped by a 19th-century bellcote. The north wall has lancets by Ferrey and a blocked round-headed doorway from the 11th century, which has stone jambs and a hogback lintel. Above the west lancet window is an early 14th-century carved stone bellcote by Ferrey.

Inside, there is a round-headed arch leading to the apse, where wall paintings were uncovered in 1850. The chancel features 19th-century benches and ceiling, with medieval tiles reset in the floor. The chancel arch was widened in 1831, and a rood screen and loft carved in the style of the 15th century by Walter Topper were added in 1914. The nave contains a mid-19th-century pulpit, benches, and ceiling, along with 19th-century wall tablets. The Norman font was recut in the mid-19th century and has a mid-19th-century cover. Beneath the west window are the early 14th-century "Jesus" bell and fragments of a Norman pillar piscina with a capital carved with head and leaf scrolls. A candelabra in the nave was removed from Syncombe House, which has since been demolished.
