St. Margaret's Church, Church building in Rochester, Medway, England
The church features a prominent tower constructed in 1465, rendered brick walls, and a low pitched slate roof with eight bells in the belfry.
The first mention of St Margaret's appears in a 1108 charter of Bishop Gundulf, initially serving as a chapel of St Nicholas parish until 1272.
The church maintains connections with St. Margaret's at Troy Town Church of England Primary School, supporting educational initiatives in the local community.
Regular worship services take place on Sundays at 10 AM, while Sunday school sessions begin at 9 AM for families with children.
The church holds significance as the marriage location of John Newton, who composed the hymn 'Amazing Grace', in the year 1750.
