St Mary Magdalene's Church, Tortington, Norman church in Tortington, England
The exterior of St Mary Magdalene's Church presents stone walls with a wooden door framed by three rows of Norman carvings and ornamental hinge straps.
The church construction began in 1101, incorporating Norman architectural elements that remain visible in the building's structure and decorative features.
The chancel arch displays carved figures known as beakheads, representing creatures with large eyes and tentacles that reflect medieval religious artistic expressions.
The church welcomes visitors daily from 10 AM to 4 PM, with access through a grassy path that requires caution during wet conditions.
The twelfth-century font inside the church exhibits detailed arcading patterns and cable moulding along its rim, demonstrating medieval stone craftsmanship.
