St Mary's Church, Lawford

The church features stone walls constructed with flint and septaria, complemented by limestone details and an extended north aisle added in 1826.

The oldest sections of the church date to 1200, with substantial additions including the chancel, south porch, and first tower constructed in 1340.

The church maintains a collection of three historic bells from different periods: 1667, 1714, and 1907, which remain part of religious ceremonies.

Regular Anglican services take place in this Grade I listed building, which received modern facilities through a 1991 extension including meeting rooms.

The east window required complete restoration after sustaining direct bomb damage during World War II in 1944, marking a significant point in its preservation.
