An entry in the Domesday book of 1086 tells us that a church existed here even before the Norman Conquest, and although nothing now remains of that Anglo-Saxon church, the present lovely and impressive building dates from the early twelfth century and is famed for its atmosphere of healing tranquillity and peace.

 

The Bishop of Chichester blessed the restoration work at a wonderful service of rejoicing on Tuesday 20 October 2009.
