Church of St Nicholas, Medieval church in New Romney, England

The Church of St Nicholas exhibits Norman architecture with a tower, clerestory windows, and ornate stonework throughout its structural composition.

Established in 1160, the church underwent substantial modifications after the great storm of 1287, which altered the surrounding landscape and ground level.

The tomb of Richard Stuppeny, dating from 1526, served as a gathering point for annual mayoral elections until the Municipal Corporations Act of 1835.

The church maintains level access throughout its main areas and provides parking facilities within 250 meters of the entrance for visitors.

The west door sits notably lower than the current ground level due to centuries of accumulated silt from historical flooding events.
