Parish Church of St Mary the Virgin

The Parish Church of St Mary the Virgin features English Gothic architecture with two side chapels and Victorian woodwork furniture throughout its interior.

The current structure dates from 1494, with the date carved in stone above the west door, though a church existed on this site since 1401.

The church maintains a strong choral tradition and holds services using both the Book of Common Prayer and contemporary liturgy for different Sunday gatherings.

The main service begins at 10:30 AM, with separate children's activities provided, while Church House hosts community events in its garden setting.

The church tower contains nine bells and supports a signal beacon, which belongs to an ancient network of communication points across the region.
