Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: St Margaret's church - view west. St Margaret's church > 917112 - 917130 is situated set back from the single-track Witton Lane, and because of its short tower it can easily be passed without noticing. A church was first documented here during the reign of Edward I (1272-1307). Since then the small church, built from flint and stone, has been altered several times, the most extensive restoration work having been carried out in the 19th century. Furnishings and stained glass windows > 917140 - 917144 - 917158 date from this time; the octagonal baptismal font > 917155 is C14; the rood screen was built in the first half of the 20th century. At some time (probably during the 17th century) the tower, the lower stage of which dates from the 15th century, was shortened and its top rebuilt in octagonal shape, topped by a brick parapet; the tower windows have fenestrated brickwork, a style also seen in local barns. There are a number of memorials > 917146 - mainly C19 - the most noteworthy being a 15th century brass > 917151 to Dame Juliana Anyell. The church is kept locked.
