St George's Church

The church structure contains a chancel, nave, and shingled bell-turret at the west end, with walls made of flint rubble covered in roughcast.

The church dates back to 1001, with evidence of Saxon worship on the site and substantial Norman elements surviving in the chancel section.

The parish church maintains regular Sunday and weekday services as part of the joint ecclesiastical parish with Barnham and Aldingbourne churches since 1992.

The building accommodates 80 worshippers for regular services and provides additional space during festivals, with access through a farmyard near the manor house.

Ancient herringbone pattern brickwork using Roman materials remains visible in the south wall of the chancel, suggesting possible Roman influence.
