The Parish Church Of The Holy Trinity

This is one of the most famous and distinguished medieval churches in Sussex.

It may be built on the site of a Roman basilica.

The main portion of the chancel is Saxon but was extended to the east in the late C12 and the vestry was added about 1200.

The tower also is Saxon, except the top storey which was added in the C15.

The nave is C13, the south porch C14. [Double trefoil-headed piscina

font of c.1200, octagonal with 4 corner shafts.] Recess in south aisle having C15 flat cinquefoil-headed arch with carved heads at the end of the cusps.
