St Mary the Virgin's Church, Cavendish, 14th century parish church in Cavendish, England.

The church features a flint exterior construction with a prominent stair turret above the parapet and a lantern-topped tower from the 14th century.

The church structure evolved from a Saxon establishment mentioned in the Domesday Book of 1086 to its current form through construction phases between 1300 and 1485.

The interior houses a 16th-century Flemish reredos depicting the crucifixion, framed by Sir Ninian Comper, and positioned in the North aisle.

Morning Prayer services take place every first and third Sunday at 10:30 a.m., offering family-oriented worship in a traditional setting.

The church door retains its original 600-year-old ironwork, including the sanctuary ring that Sir John Cavendish grasped before his capture during the Peasants' Revolt.
