St Margaret's Church
The Church of England parish church is St Margaret’s, a Grade I listed building[1] dedicated probably either to St Margaret of Antioch or to St Margaret of Scotland. It has been described is “an attractive and interesting little church, often subjected to flooding". The church building is partly Norman, but the chancel, south door and porch, the windows in the nave, and the diagonal buttresses of the tower date to between about 1460 and 1470.[2]
