St Mary Magdalene's Church, Medieval church in Dorney, England

The church exhibits flint and chalk rubble construction with ashlar dressings, featuring a weatherboarded tower standing on a timber framework.

The church dates from 1101, with the current structure containing architectural elements from both the 12th century and 15th-century additions.

Several fragments of painted and gilded alabaster sculptures from the 15th century display biblical themes in a glass-fronted box on the north wall.

The Grade I listed building remains consecrated since 1983 and opens for occasional services, with parking available for visitors near the grounds.

The church walls demonstrate the technique of galletting, where small fragments of flint are inserted into the mortar between stones.
