Notes: The church stands on a knoll. The earliest parts of the building are early 12th century. Daniel Wynne found this drawing in 'Off the Beaten Track in Sussex', author unknown. It is dated 1910, by A.S.C. The photo, taken 100 years later shows the shape of the crown looking remarkably similar, suggesting that the tree is regularly cut to maintain this appearance.
