St Martin of Tours Church, Detling, Norman parish church in Detling, England

The church building features flint and rag-stone construction materials, complemented by a plain tiled roof and a timber-shingled broach spire.

Dating from January 17, 1101, St Martin of Tours Church received Grade I listed building status on April 26, 1968, recognizing its architectural importance.

The church maintains its position within the Anglican denomination through regular Sunday services and community gatherings in the parish of Detling and Thurnham.

Visitors can explore the early twelve-sided font, the carved oak lectern from 1340-1350, and the pipe organ transferred from Maidstone in 1973.

The north aisle, added during the Early English period, demonstrates the evolution of architectural styles from Norman to Perpendicular Gothic elements.
