List of places of worship in Horsham District

The district has many ancient churches with Anglican congregations, such as St Peter's Church at Upper Beeding—formerly linked to Sele Priory.

Nonconformist places of worship include Billingshurst Unitarian Chapel, founded in 1754.

There are more than 110 current and former churches and other places of worship in the district of Horsham, one of seven local government districts in the English county of West Sussex. The town of Horsham, the district's administrative centre, has 86 places of worship in use as of 2016, and a further 27 closed churches which, although still standing, are no longer in religious use. The area has a long history of Christian worship, in both the main population centres (Horsham, Billingshurst, Henfield, Pulborough, Steyning and Storrington) and the surrounding villages and hamlets. Many Anglican churches are of Anglo-Saxon or Norman architecture. Roman Catholic places of worship include chapels within convents and priories, including England's only Carthusian monastery, as well as modern churches. Protestant Nonconformity has been well established since the 17th century. Plymouth Brethren are well represented in the north of the district; Baptists, Methodists and United Reformed Church worshippers have many churches; William Penn lived and preached in the area, which still has a strong Quaker presence;^[1] and one of eight chapels belonging to a now vanished local sect, the Society of Dependants, still stands at Warnham. There is also a mosque in the town of Horsham.

English Heritage has awarded listed status to nearly 50 current and former church buildings in the district of Horsham. A building is defined as "listed" when it is placed on a statutory register of buildings of "special architectural or historic interest" in accordance with the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990.^[2] The Department for Culture, Media and Sport, a Government department, is responsible for this; English Heritage, a non-departmental public body, acts as an agency of the department to administer the process and advise the department on relevant issues.^[3] There are three grades of listing status: Grade I, the highest, is defined as being of "exceptional interest"; Grade II* is used for "particularly important buildings of more than special interest"; and Grade II, the lowest, is used for buildings of "special interest".^[4] As of February 2001, there were 38 buildings with Grade I status, 60 with Grade II* status and 1,628 with Grade II status in the district of Horsham.^[5]

Overview of the district and its places of worship

Horsham district shown within West Sussex

Horsham is a large, mostly rural district in southeast England, which covers about 205 square miles (530 km²) of land between the North and South Downs. Much of the land is part of the Weald, some is heavily forested, and large parts are classified as Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty.^[6] More than one-third of residents live in the ancient market town of Horsham, which has grown rapidly since the 19th century to support a population of 45,000.^[6][7] The next largest settlements are the villages of Billingshurst, Henfield, Pulborough, Steyning and Storrington.^[6] These and many other villages and hamlets within the 32 civil parishes have ancient churches, particularly from the 13th century.^[8] Clockwise from the south, the district is bordered by the districts of Adur, Arun and Chichester in West Sussex; the borough of Waverley and the district of Mole Valley in the county of Surrey; the West Sussex borough of Crawley and district of Mid Sussex; and the city of Brighton and Hove.^[9]

The Christianisation of Sussex began with St Wilfrid in the 7th century,^[10] and gained pace in the 8th century when St Cuthman arrived at Steyning and founded St Andrew's Church. The densely forested Weald had been a stronghold of pagan worship, but by the 9th century Sussex was "at least nominally, a Christian county" due to the work of travelling missionaries such as Cuthman, who spent their lives preaching and founding places of worship.^[11][12]

In common with other parts of Sussex, many early churches were simple "two-cell" buildings with a nave and chancel. As worship became more elaborate, settlements grew larger and building techniques improved, many of these Saxon-era structures were extended or replaced,^[13] and Norman or early Gothic architecture characterises many of Horsham district's churches. Many ancient churches were restored in the Victorian era—sometimes drastically, as at Amberley,^[14] Ashington,^[15] Billingshurst^[16] and Wiston,^[17] for example—for several reasons. New theological and ideological practices within the Anglican church, associated with the Oxford Movement and the Cambridge Camden Society, defined new architectural ideals for churches to follow. Those that lacked the required features, such as large chancels, chancel screens and a separate nave, were identified for restoration, as were churches with newly unfashionable features such as box pews and galleries.^[18] In other cases, apathy and declining congregations had led to serious structural decay over the course of several centuries.^[19][20] Meanwhile, population growth in larger settlements necessitated enlargements or rebuildings in some cases. Gordon Macdonald Hills, who conducted "particularly damaging restorations" at more than 30 Sussex churches,^[19] was especially active in the Horsham area, but other architects such as Samuel Sanders Teulon, Henry Woodyer, John Loughborough Pearson, George Gilbert Scott, Jr. and R.H. Carpenter also left their mark on the district's old churches in the 19th century.^[21]

Roman Catholic worship in the area has had an unbroken history since before the English Reformation,^[22] despite being outlawed for centuries by various Acts of Parliament. Rich families such as the Wappingthorns at Steyning^[23] and the Carylls at West Grinstead maintained the faith, sometimes using secret rooms to celebrate Mass. Example survives in the Priest's House next to the 19th-century Church of Our Lady of Consolation and St Francis in West Grinstead,^[24] and possibly at Henfield.^[25] Mass was sometimes said in private houses (as at Henfield)^[26] before permanent churches were built, and three of the district's present Roman Catholic churches are linked to monasteries and convents. Public worship takes place in the chapels at St Hugh's Charterhouse Monastery at Parkminster^[27] and The Towers Convent in Upper Beeding,^[28] and the Priory Church of Our Lady of England in Storrington is physically linked to the Premonstratensian monastery there.^[29]

Protestant Nonconformist worship has had a long and successful history in the area. Many denominations founded chapels and meeting places between the 17th and 19th centuries, both in the towns and in rural areas; many survive and remain in use. Baptist worship never gained such a hold as it did in East Sussex,^[22] but Horsham town became a hotbed of the Strict and Particular Baptist cause in the 19th century, when three such chapels were founded: Hope, Rehoboth and Jireh.^[30] General Baptists became established in the 1660s under the leadership of radical evangelist Matthew Caffyn, the first leader of Horsham General Baptist Chapel (1721).^[30] Members of the chapel founded a mission at Billingshurst in 1754;^[31] both causes moved towards Unitarianism in the 19th century,^[32] and both chapels are still used. The later Brighton Road General Baptist Church also founded two offshoot chapels.^[30] The Wesleyan and Primitive Methodist movements were also focused on Horsham. Wesleyan worship at a chapel in the town's London Road dates from 1832. Outreach work to surrounding villages led to the founding of chapels in Southwater (now demolished), Dragon's Green, Faygate, Mannings Heath and Partridge Green.^[33] The United Reformed Church, into which the Congregational Church merged in 1972, has four congregations in the district; several other chapels fell out of use while still registered as Congregational, and one at Henfield became Evangelical.^[34] The Religious Society of Friends (Quakers) had a presence in towns and villages across the district from the 17th century, despite repression. William Penn lived at Warminghurst and preached there^[35] and at a former meeting house in Steyning, now called Penn's House;^[36] he was also linked to the curiously named Blue Idol, a Quaker place of worship since 1691.^[22][37] Horsham's meeting house dates from 1834, but the community worshipped in houses or in the open air long before that.^[30] Plymouth Brethren, meanwhile, maintain a strong presence in Horsham town. Their cause was helped by the support of Charles Eversfield of Denne Park, who founded their first meeting house in 1863. Three other meeting rooms survive in the town. The Anglican church was strongly opposed to the denomination in the 19th century, seeing it as an "irritant" locally.^[30] Other extant places of worship for Christian Scientists, The Salvation Army and Jehovah's Witnesses exist, and denominations such as Presbyterians, Mormons, Swedenborgians, Pentecostalists^[30] and the obscure, localised Society of Dependants [sic] formerly worshipped in the district. The last named sect, also known as Cokelers, established eight chapels in Sussex and Surrey in the 19th century, often with co-operative shops nearby. Warnham's old chapel was used until the 1970s, as was the associated shop.^[38][39]

The only non-Christian place of worship in the district is a mosque, which found a permanent home in Horsham town centre only in 2008: the community used houses and industrial buildings previously. The former Jireh Independent Baptist Chapel, which passed out of religious use in the mid-20th century,^[30][40] became Madina Mosque after Horsham District Council granted planning permission in 2008.^[41]

Religious affiliation

According to the United Kingdom Census 2001, 122,088 people lived in Horsham district. Of these, 76.34% identified themselves as Christian, 0.37% were Muslim, 0.22% were Buddhist, 0.19% were Hindu, 0.18% were Jewish, 0.08% were Sikh, 0.36% followed another religion, 15.44% claimed no religious affiliation and 6.82% did not state their religion. The proportion of Christians was much higher than the 71.74% in England as a whole, and other religions not listed in the Census were also followed by more people than the national average (0.29%). The proportion of people with no religious affiliation was also higher than the national figure of 14.59%. The proportion of Buddhists was slightly lower than the 0.28% national figure; and adherents of Islam, Hinduism, Judaism and Sikhism were much less prevalent in the district than in England overall. In 2001, 3.1% of people in England were Muslim, 1.11% were Hindu, 0.67% were Sikh and 0.52% were Jewish.^[42]

Administration

All Anglican churches in Horsham district are part of the Diocese of Chichester, whose cathedral is at Chichester,^[43] and the Archdeaconry of Horsham—one of three subdivisions which make up the next highest level of administration.^[44] In turn, this archdeaconry is divided into eight deaneries.^[44] The churches at Billingshurst, Broadbridge Heath, Colgate, Coolhurst, Itchingfield, Lower Beeding, Mannings Heath, Nuthurst, Partridge Green, Roffey, Rudgwick, Rusper, Shipley, Slinfold, Southwater, Tisman's Common, Warnham and West Grinstead, and the four in Horsham town, are in the Rural Deanery of Horsham.^[45] Those at Amberley, Ashington, Ashurst, Botolphs, Bramber, Buncton, Greatham, Parham, Pulborough, Steyning, Storrington, Sullington, Thakeham, Upper Beeding, Washington, West Chiltington and Wiggonholt are part of the Rural Deanery of Storrington.^[46] Cowfold, Edburton, Henfield and Shermanbury's churches are within the Rural Deanery of Hurst.^[47] Two churches in the southwest of the district—at Coldwaltham and Hardham—are in the Rural Deanery of Petworth.^[48]

The Roman Catholic Diocese of Arundel and Brighton, whose cathedral is at Arundel,^[49] administers the district's eight Roman Catholic churches. Those at Billingshurst, Pulborough and Storrington are in Cathedral Deanery; Steyning and Upper Beeding's churches are part of Worthing Deanery; and the churches at Henfield, Horsham and West Grinstead are in the Crawley Deanery.^[50]

Three Baptist churches in the district are part of the South Eastern Baptist Association, which administers about 150 churches of that denomination across southeast England.^[51] Brighton Road and Trafalgar Road Baptist Churches in Horsham town are in the Association's Gatwick Network. Upper Beeding Baptist Church is in the Mid Sussex Network.^[52] Brighton Road Baptist Church in Horsham set up a daughter church in the Littlehaven area of town in 1993. The Life Community Baptist Church now meets at a school,^[53] and is also part of the South Eastern Baptist Association's Gatwick Network.^[52]

Open places of worship

Name	Image	Location	Denomination/ Affiliation	Grade	Notes	Refs
St Michael and All Angels Church		Amberley 50°54′32″N 0°32′22″W / 50.9090°N 0.5394°W	Anglican	I	Amberley's parish church stands next to the castle and has Norman origins: Bishop Luffa founded it in about 1100, and its windows were extended to "thumping great" proportions in the 1150s. Most of the present structure is 13th-century; in particular, Bishop Ralph Neville extended the chancel in about 1230. Gordon Macdonald Hills carried out restoration in the Victorian era.	[14][54] [55][56] [57][58] [19]
St Peter and St Paul's Church		Ashington 50°55′53″N 0°23′42″W / 50.9314°N 0.3950°W	Anglican	II*	The church here was originally dependent on nearby Washington when founded in the 12th century. Some medieval features remain, but Robert Wheeler's "disastrous" (to Nikolaus Pevsner) restoration of 1871–72 was needed because of population growth. The flint and stone church has Perpendicular Gothic elements.	[59][60] [15][61]
St James's Church		Ashurst 50°56′05″N 0°19′38″W / 50.9348°N 0.3273°W	Anglican	I	Built of flint with a Horsham Stone roof in the 12th and 13th centuries, this remote church has a double nave split by an arcade. The tower has a broach spire. A very rare 18th-century vamp-horn, a bizarre musical instrument with a droning sound, survives inside: it was used to accompany the choir.	[19][61] [62][63] [64][65] [66][67]
St Mary's Church		Billingshurst 51°01′21″N 0°27′03″W / 51.0224°N 0.4507°W	Anglican	I	The west-end broach spire looms over the partly 12th-century church and the village. The tower is the oldest and architecturally best feature; much 15th-century work remains as well, but the east end has a Gothic Revival appearance because of a restoration in 1866.	[16][68] [69][70] [71][72]
St Gabriel's Church		Billingshurst 51°01′19″N 0°26′50″W / 51.0220°N 0.4472°W	Roman Catholic	–	Prolific Roman Catholic architect Henry Bingham Towner designed this church in 1962 to replace a chapel of 1925 elsewhere in the village. It is typical of his style, and opinion ranges from "deplorable" to "interesting and satisfying". The reconstituted stone exterior leads to an aisled nave and sanctuary with a miniature tower.	[31][73] [74]
Billingshurst Unitarian Chapel		Billingshurst 51°01′18″N 0°27′11″W / 51.0218°N 0.4531°W	Unitarian	II	This Georgian Vernacular-style chapel has a well-preserved interior and is set back from the street in a large raised graveyard. Built of grey and red brick in 1754, it has a small porch and an interior gallery. An extension was added in 1825.	[31][73] [75][76]
Trinity United Reformed Church		Billingshurst 51°01′15″N 0°27′11″W / 51.0208°N 0.4530°W	United Reformed	–	A Congregational chapel known as "Gingers Chapel" was founded in 1815. This church, by Thomas Elworthy, replaced it on a different site in 1868. The Early English-style building is of red and blue brick with some stuccoed stonework.	[31][77]
St Botolph's Church		Botolphs 50°52′14″N 0°18′18″W / 50.8705°N 0.3051°W	Anglican	I	Apart from a small Victorian porch, this isolated church is ancient: parts of the chancel and nave are Saxon, and there is a 13th-century blocked aisle and tower with a "Sussex cap" roof. A good Jacobean pulpit survives from the 17th century, and fragmentary wall paintings are visible.	[78][79] [80][81] [82][83] [84][85]
St Nicholas' Church		Bramber 50°52′58″N 0°18′55″W / 50.8829°N 0.3153°W	Anglican	I	William de Braose founded a chapel here, linked to his castle, in about 1073. It became the property of Saumur Abbey in France soon afterwards, and of Sele Priory later. The bulky, hollow, castellated tower is 18th-century. Crude Norman-era carvings survive inside.	[86][87] [88][89] [90][91] [92]
St John's Church		Broadbridge Heath 51°04′17″N 0°21′42″W / 51.0713°N 0.3616°W	Anglican	–	Now part of a team ministry of five churches in the Horsham area, this church has its origins in a mission hall of 1853. A tin tabernacle replaced it in 1904, but structural problems led to its demolition in 1957. A cruciform replacement of extremely unusual design was completed in 1963.	[93][94] [95][96]
Brethren Meeting Room		Broadbridge Heath 51°04′17″N 0°21′37″W / 51.0713°N 0.3604°W	Plymouth Brethren	–	This was founded as a Baptist mission chapel in 1908 by Samuel Barrow, and was associated with Brighton Road Baptist Church in its early days. By 1955 it was called Broadbridge Heath Free Church, and it was registered for marriages under that name in February 1970. The building has since been acquired by Plymouth Brethren. The red-brick and stone chapel has lancet windows.	[30][97] [98][99]
All Saints Church		Buncton 50°54′48″N 0°22′21″W / 50.9133°N 0.3726°W	Anglican	I	Originally a chapel of ease to Ashington, this tiny two-cell stone building dates from the 11th or 12th century and now stands in a remote situation with few buildings nearby. Simple, "picturesque" and "delightfully unrestored", the building has many ancient internal features—but its famous feature, an extraordinary carving with exposed genitalia, was destroyed by a vandal in 2004.	[60][100] [101][102] [103][104] [105][106]
St Giles' Church		Coldwaltham 50°56′21″N 0°32′41″W / 50.9392°N 0.5448°W	Anglican	II*	A major but characterful rebuilding in 1871 replaced most features except a 13th-century arcade, the half-timbered Norman belfry and the Early English-style tower of the 14th century. The stained glass by Charles Eamer Kempe is considered to be among his best work.	[107][108] [109][110] [111][112]
St Saviour's Church		Colgate 51°04′54″N 0°14′38″W / 51.0817°N 0.2440°W	Anglican	–	Gordon Macdonald Hills, restorer of many churches in the area, designed Colgate's parish church in 1871. It replaced a smaller building opened three years earlier as a chapel of ease to Lower Beeding. The Decorated/Perpendicular Gothic Revival yellow- and blue-brick structure has a bell turret and a reredos by F. W. Pomeroy.	[113][114] [115][116]
Blue Idol		Coolham 50°59′49″N 0°25′24″W / 50.9969°N 0.4233°W	Quaker	II*	Forming one section of a 17th-century timber-framed cottage in a rural setting, this Quaker meeting house was founded for William Penn in 1691. The conversion, by John Shaw, created a large single-storey room. It fell out of use in 1793, but services started again in 1837 and there have been extensions since then. The name's origins are obscure.	[31][37] [117][118] [119][120] [121]
St John the Evangelist's Church		Coolhurst 51°03′19″N 0°17′20″W / 51.0553°N 0.2890°W	Anglican	–	Land for a church in this wooded location was given in 1836, and the "forest church" (also known as the "Sun Oak church") was consecrated in 1839. The Early English-style stone building has a bell turret at the west end of the stone roof. Originally a chapel of ease to Lower Beeding, it was later served from Horsham.	[93][113] [115][122]
St Peter's Church		Cowfold 50°59′24″N 0°16′26″W / 50.9901°N 0.2738°W	Anglican	I	The "chief glory" of this substantial, largely 13th- and 15th-century church is a large floor-mounded brass memorial to Thomas Nelond, a Prior of Southover. He died in 1433, and the brass and its "enchanting", well-preserved canopy date from then. The font can be dated precisely to 1481. Restoration was carried out on the ashlar and rubble building in 1877.	[109][123] [124][125] [126][127] [128][129]
Parkminster Monastery Church		Cowfold 50°58′23″N 0°16′59″W / 50.9731°N 0.2830°W	Roman Catholic	II*	The chapel at Britain's only post-Reformation Carthusian monastery has been open for public worship since 1943. Clovis Normand fils, a French architect, designed the French Gothic complex of buildings near Cowfold village. The large chapel lacks aisles and has an apsidal end. Stone, both foreign and local (from Hastings), are the main materials.	[130][131] [27][132] [133]
St Andrew's Church		Edburton 50°53′23″N 0°14′54″W / 50.8898°N 0.2483°W	Anglican	II*	This 13th-century church was a Peculier of Canterbury until 1846. Much original detail survives despite a restoration in 1878. A north chapel and large porch were added in the 14th century, and the tower is a century newer. Eadburh of Winchester may have founded the village and its original 10th-century church.	[134][135] [136][137] [138][139]
Greatham Church		Greatham 50°56′02″N 0°30′57″W / 50.9340°N 0.5158°W	Anglican	I	No dedication is recorded for this small church in Parham parish. The single-cell stone building has been said to resemble a haystack, as recalled by author Arthur Mee. Fittings include a good 17th-century communion rail and a Gothic pulpit. The roof, laid with slates, has a bell turret.	[140][141] [142][143] [144][145]
St Botolph's Church		Hardham 50°56′55″N 0°31′22″W / 50.9486°N 0.5227°W	Anglican	I	Nationally famous wall paintings include the earliest mural of Saint George in a British church. Dating from the 12th century, the extensive designs were covered a century later and were found when Victorian restorers were working on the interior in 1866. The simple two-cell stone church dates from the 11th century.	[142][143] [146][147] [148][149]
St Peter's Church		Henfield 50°55′56″N 0°16′35″W / 50.9323°N 0.2765°W	Anglican	II*	The aisles, chancel and transepts were renewed in 1870 by William Slater and R.H. Carpenter, but a side chapel and the large Perpendicular Gothic tower retain their 16th-century appearance and the chancel arch dates from the 12th century. Stained glass includes a 1901 window with Art Nouveau overtones.	[142][150] [151][152] [153][154] [155]
Henfield Evangelical Free Church		Henfield 50°55′52″N 0°16′19″W / 50.9311°N 0.2720°W	Evangelical	–	Originally a Congregational chapel, this has its origins in a two-bay chapel of 1832. The manse stood in front and obscured it until 1904, when it was demolished and the chapel was refronted in flint and brick. The congregation grew throughout the 20th century and aligned itself to the Evangelical movement.	[34][156] [157][158]
Corpus Christi Church		Henfield 50°55′52″N 0°16′35″W / 50.9312°N 0.2763°W	Roman Catholic	–	Lilian Sterns held Roman Catholic services in her house, then built a timber church in the grounds in 1929. A parish was formed out of West Grinstead's territory in 1968, and a replacement church—in red brick, and still dedicated to Corpus Christi—was provided in 1974. Southern England's first seminary for Catholic priests was founded in Henfield in 1889.	[25][26]
St Mary's Church		Horsham 51°03′35″N 0°19′51″W / 51.0597°N 0.3309°W	Anglican	I	Reached down a quiet street lined with medieval buildings, and with open country behind, Horsham's 12th-century parish church is well situated but was given a thorough overhaul in the mid-13th century, giving it a "heavy, towny" character. S.S. Teulon's restoration of 1865 added an aisle, new windows (fitted with stained glass by various designers) and some elaborate gabling.	[93][96] [159][160] [161][162] [163][164]
Holy Trinity Church		Horsham 51°04′10″N 0°19′49″W / 51.0694°N 0.3303°W	Anglican	–	The dedication of this church may relate to the former Holy Trinity chantry, founded in 1307. A 250-capacity tin tabernacle was opened in 1879 to serve a growing suburb; when the building moved to Broadbridge Heath in 1900, William Gillbee Scott designed a Gothic Revival red-brick replacement.	[93][94] [95][96] [165][166] [167][168]
St Leonard's Church		Horsham 51°03′41″N 0°19′04″W / 51.0615°N 0.3177°W	Anglican	–	Land in east Horsham was bought in 1899, but the town-centre St Mark's Church had to be closed to provide money to establish a new church in the growing area. This eventually happened in 1936, and the red-brick St Leonard's Church was ready in 1939.	[93][95] [96][169]
Brighton Road Baptist Church		Horsham 51°03′37″N 0°19′17″W / 51.0603°N 0.3215°W	Baptist	–	The present chapel is the third on the site. Originally founded in 1896 for General Baptists in a tin tabernacle which was given a Gothic Revival brick façade, it was rebuilt in 1923 in a similar style using red brick and stonework. This was in turn demolished in 2007 and rebuilt in a Modern style in 2008.	[30][165] [40][170] [171][172] [173][174]
Hope Strict Baptist Chapel		Horsham 51°03′48″N 0°18′56″W / 51.0632°N 0.3156°W	Baptist	–	Horsham's second Strict Baptist chapel had its origins in meetings in a public hall in March 1900. The congregation moved several times, but on 2 December 1903 their new red-brick square-windowed chapel on Oakhill Road was inaugurated, and worship has continued there ever since. The three founders were from Kent.	[30][165] [40][170] [172][175] [176]
Rehoboth Grace Baptist Church		Horsham 51°03′39″N 0°19′16″W / 51.0609°N 0.3212°W	Baptist	–	Particular Baptist seceders from the present Horsham Unitarian Church founded this chapel in 1834 after a period of worshipping at a farmhouse. It is a red-brick building with a gabled façade and round-headed windows. A modern frontage has been added. Hymnwriter Edward Mote was a long-serving pastor.	[30][165] [40][170] [171][175] [172][176]
Trafalgar Road Baptist Church		Horsham 51°04′24″N 0°19′47″W / 51.0733°N 0.3297°W	Baptist	–	Brighton Road Baptist Church established a mission chapel in the rapidly growing Trafalgar Road area in the 1920s.

Christian Life Centre		Horsham 51°03′41″N 0°19′30″W / 51.0615°N 0.3251°W	Evangelical	–	This large Renaissance Revival brick and stone chapel on East Street was built for a Primitive Methodist congregation in 1891. It closed in 1932, and in 1957 Pentecostal worshippers moved in and renamed it Fellowship Hall. This continued into the 1980s, but by 2005 the present name and Evangelical character had been adopted.	[30][165] [40][170] [177][178]
Denne Road Gospel Hall		Horsham 51°03′40″N 0°19′38″W / 51.0611°N 0.3273°W	Evangelical	–	Charles Eversfield funded a new Plymouth Brethren chapel near his Denne Park home in 1863; it replaced earlier short-lived meeting houses elsewhere in Horsham. The stuccoed façade has a porch below an arched window. Eversfield's influence was significant—Brethren have always had a strong presence in this part of Sussex—but an Evangelical congregation now uses the chapel.	[30][165] [40][171] [172][179] [180]
First Church of Christ Scientist		Horsham 51°03′54″N 0°20′19″W / 51.0651°N 0.3386°W	Christian Scientist	–	This brick building on the Guildford Road was registered for worship by members of the Church of Christ, Scientist in 1953.	[30][181]

London Road Methodist Church		Horsham 51°03′53″N 0°19′45″W / 51.0647°N 0.3291°W	Methodist	–	Methodism came to Horsham in 1776, and the first Wesleyan chapel was erected in 1832 on London Road. Its 400-capacity Gothic Revival replacement, with prominent buttresses and stone dressings to its red-brick walls, opened in 1883 as a memorial to Kate Ireland, founder of the first chapel.	[30][165] [40][170] [168][172] [173][183] [184]
Madina Mosque		Horsham 51°03′39″N 0°19′23″W / 51.0609°N 0.3231°W	Muslim	–	Horsham's Muslim population have worshipped at this former Baptist chapel since 2008 after a 14-year search for a permanent home. The stuccoed, rusticated, arch-windowed chapel was built as the Jireh Independent Chapel in 1857. The cause failed in the mid-20th century, and the building was used as a hair salon before its reversion to religious use.	[30][165] [40][175] [171][172] [185][186] [41]
Arthur Road Meeting Room		Horsham 51°03′37″N 0°19′13″W / 51.0602°N 0.3202°W	Plymouth Brethren	–	This stands on a road off the main Brighton Road and serves the Brethren community.	[187]

Soon afterwards, a meeting house was founded; the 1693 building on the present Worthing Road was replaced in 1786, and the present cottage-like structure dates from 1834. Its red-brick walls support a tiled hipped roof with moulded eaves.	[30][40] [96][168] [188][189] [190][191]
St John the Evangelist's Church		Horsham 51°03′51″N 0°19′55″W / 51.0641°N 0.3319°W	Roman Catholic	–	Architects E. and J. Goldie's building, a Perpendicular Gothic Revival stone and rubble church of 1919–23 with side chapels to the nave, is Horsham's third Roman Catholic church. All three stood on Springfield Road. A castellated church of 1820 was turned into a school when a new building was erected nearby in 1865.	[165][166] [94][171] [96][173] [192][193]

Horsham Unitarian Church		Horsham 51°03′46″N 0°20′00″W / 51.0629°N 0.3334°W	Unitarian	II	This vernacular, cottage-like building was erected in 1721 for General Baptists linked to radical preacher Matthew Caffyn. The two-storey red- and blue/grey-brick chapel was later extended with a porch and an arch-windowed lean-to. The cause moved towards Unitarianism in the late 19th century.	[30][40] [168][189] [172][195] [196][197] [198]
Horsham United Reformed Church		Horsham 51°03′50″N 0°19′53″W / 51.0639°N 0.3314°W	United Reformed	–	Slinfold Chapel is served from this former Congregational church, as was Maplehurst's former church. Meetings of Congregationalists took place from the late 18th century; they built their first church in Springfield Road in 1814. A larger Gothic Revival chapel replaced it in 1884, and the present building (again on the same site) dates from 1983.	[30][165] [40][170] [171][172] [173][199]
St Nicolas' Church		Itchingfield 51°02′55″N 0°23′14″W / 51.0486°N 0.3873°W	Anglican	II*	The church fabric dates from three distinct periods: the Norman era, the 15th century—when the unusual all-wood tower was built—and 1866, when Sir George Gilbert Scott added an aisle and carried out general restoration. Many windows are 12th- or 14th-century. A curious timber-framed priest's house survives under a tree in the churchyard; it is partly 15th-century.	[200][201] [202][203] [204][205]
Brethren Meeting Room		Littlehaven, Horsham 51°04′44″N 0°18′31″W / 51.0789°N 0.3087°W	Plymouth Brethren	–	Planning permission was granted in 1981 to erect a meeting hall for Brethren on a site off the Rusper Road in the Littlehaven area of Horsham.	[206][207]
Holy Trinity Church		Lower Beeding 51°02′00″N 0°15′40″W / 51.0332°N 0.2610°W	Anglican	II	Henry Jones Underwood copied one of his earlier church designs—St Mary and St Nicholas Church at Littlemore, Oxfordshire—for his work on the new parish church at Lower Beeding. Matthew Habershon added north and south aisles with marble columns in 1864. The stone church has a west tower and is Early English Gothic Revival in style.	[113][208] [209][210] [211][212]
Church of the Good Shepherd		Mannings Heath 51°02′41″N 0°17′01″W / 51.0447°N 0.2835°W	Anglican	–	The first church in Mannings Heath was Methodist, and it had significant influence. The incumbent at Nuthurst parish church, in whose parish the village lay, founded a red-brick Gothic Revival chapel of ease there in 1881. A local resident funded its construction. The dedication was recorded by 1895. The roof has a small bell turret.	[209][213] [214]
St Mark's Church		North Heath, Horsham 51°04′57″N 0°18′56″W / 51.0824°N 0.3155°W	Anglican	–	The dedication of the former St Mark's Church in Horsham town centre was transferred to this new church in the modern Holbrook suburb in the north of Horsham. Built in the 1980s, its design uses traditional features of churches in the Weald of Sussex—in particular its heavy broach spire.	[215]
St Andrew's Church		Nuthurst 51°01′21″N 0°18′05″W / 51.0225°N 0.3015°W	Anglican	II	The parish of Nuthurst existed by 1207, and the first church dated from that time. "Terribly restored" (according to Pevsner) in a series of Victorian and Edwardian interventions, it was further altered by Harry Stuart Goodhart-Rendel in 1951. The sandstone building has an unusually elaborate vestry with Art Nouveau overtones, dating from 1907.	[214][216] [217][218]
St Peter's Church		Parham 50°54′59″N 0°29′39″W / 50.9165°N 0.4941°W	Anglican	I	The present cruciform church, next to Parham Park (an Elizabethan mansion) on the Parham Estate, is an 1820s reworking of a medieval building. A side chapel in the chancel, built in 1545, retains its original features, and an unusual lead font with inscribed stripwork and a coat of arms survives from the 14th century. The roof is of Horsham Stone.	[132][219] [220][221] [222]
St Michael and All Angels Church		Partridge Green 50°57′44″N 0°18′30″W / 50.9622°N 0.3082°W	Anglican	–	Built in 1890 and now surrounded by modern housing, Habershon and Fawkner's simple and unadorned Early English Gothic Revival church replaced a tin tabernacle at nearby Jolesfield. It is served from West Grinstead, whose former vicar Rev. John Goring gave the land. A flint and stone exterior hides a red-brick interior.	[125][132] [223] [224] [225]
Partridge Green Methodist Church		Partridge Green 50°57′36″N 0°18′11″W / 50.9600°N 0.3031°W	Methodist	–	One of many Methodist chapels founded by members of the Horsham chapel, this simple red-brick Early English Gothic Revival building was opened in 1906. It replaced a wooden structure on the same site; the congregation had met in houses before its construction in about 1888. The architect was recorded as a Mr Tovey.	[125][132] [226][227]
St Mary's Church		Pulborough 50°57′32″N 0°30′38″W / 50.9588°N 0.5106°W	Anglican	I	A largely unrestored Perpendicular Gothic church of the 13th and 14th centuries, with a slightly later tower, this well-proportioned sandstone building overlooks Pulborough's west end. The chancel has a 13th-century north chapel with an arcade of two bays. The font, of Purbeck Marble, dates from the 12th century.	[19][228] [229][230]
St Crispin and St Crispinian's Church		Pulborough 50°57′35″N 0°30′42″W / 50.9598°N 0.5117°W	Roman Catholic	–	This church is dedicated to the twin saints Crispin and Crispinian and is administered as part of a joint parish with St Gabriel's Church at Billingshurst.	[231]

It dates from soon after the latter's closure in 1947 and has a brick façade.	[209]
All Saints Church		Roffey 51°04′36″N 0°17′38″W / 51.0767°N 0.2940°W	Anglican	II	Arthur Blomfield designed the parish church of this Victorian suburb of Horsham in 1878. Church provision had been considered from the 1840s, and from 1856 local Anglicans worshipped in a newly built iron school. A resident donated money and land for a permanent church to commemorate her late husband. Blomfield's Early English-style church has a tower, a single-aisle nave and local sandstone walls.	[93][96] [232][233] [234][235] [236][237] [238][239]
St Andrew's Methodist Chapel		Roffey 51°04′26″N 0°18′06″W / 51.0740°N 0.3018°W	Methodist	–	Founded by Primitive Methodists in 1878, this 160-capacity Early English Gothic Revival chapel is built of red and blue brick with some exterior stonework. The cause thrived, and the building was improved in 1971 (the porch dates from then) and dedicated to Saint Andrew.	[30][178] [233][234] [238]
Holy Trinity Church		Rudgwick 51°05′51″N 0°26′36″W / 51.0976°N 0.4434°W	Anglican	I	This mostly 14th-century church retains a medieval atmosphere and appearance despite modest Victorian restoration. An earlier, possibly 13th-century, church was completely rebuilt a century later: the aisle and tall, wide chancel date from then. Many windows are tall and have varied cusped tracery. The Sussex Marble font is 12th-century.	[240][241] [242][243] [244]
Rudgwick Chapel		Rudgwick 51°05′43″N 0°26′41″W / 51.0952°N 0.4448°W	Evangelical	–	Founded for a Congregational community but now used by Evangelicals, the small original (1860) part of this chapel has red-brick walls. In the early 20th century, it was extended with a new façade which had a partly timbered gabled porch with a tiled exterior.	[234][244] [245]
St Mary Magdalene's Church		Rusper 51°07′22″N 0°16′45″W / 51.1227°N 0.2793°W	Anglican	I	Thoroughly restored in 1854 by Henry Woodyer—only the substantial 16th-century Perpendicular Gothic tower survives from earlier—this church is on the Surrey border and has more in common with a Thames Valley-area church than a Sussex one. Inside, a brass memorial with Norman French inscriptions dates from the 1370s.	[245][246] [247][248] [249][250]
St Giles' Church		Shermanbury 50°57′22″N 0°16′21″W / 50.9562°N 0.2726°W	Anglican	II*	The dedication was first recorded in 1341, and parts of the stone building date from then. John Gratwicke's restoration of 1710 gave the church its present appearance, and the nave was extended in 1885. Charles Eamer Kempe provided some stained glass. Queen Anne's coat of arms is prominent inside.	[251][252] [253][254]
St Mary's Church		Shipley 50°59′03″N 0°22′13″W / 50.9843°N 0.3703°W	Anglican	I	Although John Loughborough Pearson added a vestry and an aisle in 1893, the church retains its 12th-century appearance and character—especially on the completely unrestored south side. The central tower is characteristic of early Norman churches. Its bulk is accentuated by the lack of buttresses and the short chancel. A 13th-century enamelled reliquary survives inside.	[225][255] [256][257] [258]
St Peter's Church		Slinfold 51°04′22″N 0°24′22″W / 51.0727°N 0.4061°W	Anglican	II	Benjamin Ferrey's individualistic Decorated Gothic Revival stone church of 1861 lost its broach spire in 1970, but the tower retains its clock face. Gigantic capitals on the arcades in the aisles contribute to a sense of space in the interior.	[259][260] [261][262] [263]
Slinfold Chapel		Slinfold 51°04′17″N 0°24′20″W / 51.0715°N 0.4055°W	United Reformed	–	This is the third chapel serving Slinfold's Congregational (now United Reformed) community. Hayes Chapel, in a cottage near the manor house, was used from 1812 until 1858, when a chapel was built on the site of the present brick and tile building. This replaced its predecessor in 1878.	[261][262]
Church of the Holy Innocents		Southwater 51°01′31″N 0°21′31″W / 51.0253°N 0.3585°W	Anglican	II	J.P. Harrison's "small, decent chapel" of 1850 was originally in the parish of Horsham. Sir Henry Aubrey-Fletcher, 3rd Baronet donated the land and most of the cost of construction. The stone Early English Gothic Revival building has a bell turret at the west end. A vestry was added in 1909.	[93][236] [264][265] [266][267]
St Andrew's Church		Steyning 50°53′24″N 0°19′30″W / 50.8900°N 0.3250°W	Anglican	I	Founded in bizarre circumstances by St Cuthman in the 8th century, and granted to Fécamp Abbey in the mid-11th century, the present substantial 12th-century building was identified as "the best in Sussex, and one of the best in the country" by Pevsner. The Duke of Norfolk financed rebuilding of the ruined chancel in the 18th century. Gordon Macdonald Hills carried out a poorly regarded restoration in 1863–64.	[12][268] [269][270] [271][272]
Steyning Methodist Church		Steyning 50°53′16″N 0°19′35″W / 50.8877°N 0.3265°W	Methodist	–	The growing Methodist community in Steyning moved out of Jarvis Hall, their home since 1843, into Worthing architect James E. Lund's new Gothic Revival chapel in 1878. Work on the flint and yellow-brick building had started a year earlier. There were internal extensions and improvements in 1968 and 1979.	[265][266] [273]
Church of Christ the King		Steyning 50°53′06″N 0°19′38″W / 50.8850°N 0.3273°W	Roman Catholic	–	There was a significant Roman Catholic presence in Steyning during the 16th and 17th centuries. In recent times, Mass was celebrated in the town hall from 1948, and a former barn was turned into a permanent church in 1951. It was registered for marriages in June 1953 and parished in 1968, and is now part of the three-church Parish of Our Lady Queen of Peace, Adur Valley.	[23][274] [275]
St Mary the Virgin Church		Storrington 50°54′58″N 0°27′23″W / 50.9160°N 0.4564°W	Anglican	II*	Little ancient work remains in this substantial church, which stands in a high position: only the north aisle retains 11th-century details. The plain tower and much of the body of the church date from 1750 (the old steeple had collapsed a few years earlier, damaging the roof), and in 1876 the incumbent vicar, Rev. George Faithfull, funded another restoration which included the construction of a large wall with steps up from the road to the churchyard.	[276][277] [278][279] [280][281]
Storrington Chapel		Storrington 50°55′07″N 0°27′14″W / 50.9187°N 0.4540°W	Evangelical	–	Pastor Robert Mustow, who led Nonconformist worship in the late 19th century at nearby Cootham, founded a mission chapel in Storrington village centre in 1909. The tin tabernacle was replaced by this permanent building in 1932. The old building passed into commercial use and survived until 1970.	[282]
Trinity Methodist Church		Storrington 50°55′13″N 0°26′44″W / 50.9202°N 0.4456°W	Methodist	–	Methodist worship in Storrington dates from 1960. Neighbouring Sullington's parish hall was used from 1962 until 1967; in 1962 the community bought a plot of land in Sullington parish (but within the urban boundary of Storrington) to build a permanent church. This happened in 1966–67. The 140-capacity church and adjoining hall are of brick.	[282][283]
Priory Church of Our Lady of England		Storrington 50°55′00″N 0°27′36″W / 50.9166°N 0.4599°W	Roman Catholic	–	Edward Goldie's "fine" red brick and stone Decorated Gothic Revival church of 1902–04 was added to the side of Storrington's Premonstratensian monastery, which dates from 1888. Features include a timber bell turret, an apse and an interior gallery. Henry Fitzalan-Howard, 15th Duke of Norfolk donated the land.	[266][282] [29][284]
St Mary's Church		Sullington 50°54′25″N 0°26′21″W / 50.9070°N 0.4392°W	Anglican	I	Saxon work survives in this remote church, situated in farmland below the South Downs. The tall, narrow nave predates the Norman Conquest, and the tower, chancel and its arch are 13th-century. Survivals from the 12th-century include a single window and a doorway. One window has good reticulated tracery.	[285][286] [287][288] [289][290]
St Mary's Church		Thakeham 50°56′41″N 0°25′17″W / 50.9447°N 0.4214°W	Anglican	I	The church has Norman origins but was rebuilt in the 13th century; the details of the transepts and chancel arch suggest a date in the early part of that century. The large tower is later and Perpendicular Gothic in style, as is the ornate font. An earlier dedication was to Saints Peter and Paul.	[291][292] [285][293] [294]
Kingdom Hall		Thakeham 50°55′57″N 0°26′10″W / 50.9324°N 0.4360°W	Jehovah's Witnesses	–	The land on which this Kingdom Hall stands is owned by Thakeham Parish Council by means of a charitable trust. It is used by the Pulborough Congregation of Jehovah's Witnesses, and was registered for marriages in March 1990.	[295][296] [297][298]
St John's Church		Tisman's Common 51°04′57″N 0°28′13″W / 51.0825°N 0.4704°W	Anglican	–	This hamlet in the parish of Rudgwick has a very small church on land donated by the owner of Exfold Wood, a cottage, in 1913. The tiny brick chapel is hidden behind another house which now occupies the site.	[244][299]
St Peter's Church		Upper Beeding 50°53′15″N 0°18′20″W / 50.8874°N 0.3056°W	Anglican	II*	William de Braose, 1st Lord of Bramber founded Sele Priory in the late 11th century, and attached it to the church which had recently been built at Upper Beeding. It was thereafter used by both villagers and monks, but the two congregations were physically separated. The church was modest, and experienced alteration in the 19th century. Surviving pre-Victorian detail is mostly 13th-century.	[300][301] [302][303] [304][305]
Upper Beeding Baptist Church		Upper Beeding 50°52′57″N 0°18′17″W / 50.8826°N 0.3046°W	Baptist	–	The present brick building by C.J. Greening dates from 1966, but Baptist worship in the village began at a farm in 1905. A tin tabernacle was erected in 1913 by Jonathan Willet; it stood in front of the new church, and was finally demolished in 1975.	[28][306]
The Towers Convent Chapel		Upper Beeding 50°52′46″N 0°17′52″W / 50.8794°N 0.2979°W	Roman Catholic	II	Nikolaus Pevsner called the dour medieval-style convent, built in 1870 as a private house, "terrifying". Its chapel, which has been open for public worship from the beginning, was built in 1929 to E.G. Geary's Decorated Gothic Revival design. It has an apsidal end and is stuccoed with stone dressings.	[28][307] [308][309]
St Margaret's Church		Warnham 51°05′27″N 0°20′47″W / 51.0907°N 0.3465°W	Anglican	I	Arthur Blomfield's restoration of 1885–86 left some 14th- and 16th-century detail, and the simple but substantial 16th-century tower is unaltered. Rusper Priory owned the original church on this site after William de Braose, 1st Lord of Bramber granted the advowson in the 12th century, and its Purbeck Marble font survives. The original dedication was to Saint Mary.	[310][311] [312]
St Mary's Church		Washington 50°54′16″N 0°24′37″W / 50.9044°N 0.4103°W	Anglican	II*	Gordon Macdonald Hills altered the whole church, except the Norman north aisle and the 15th-century Perpendicular Gothic tower, in 1866–67. Good-quality stencil work on the interior, by Heaton and Butler in about 1880, is now covered up. Sele Priory held the church in the 11th century.	[313][314] [315][316]
St Mary's Church		West Chiltington 50°57′15″N 0°26′57″W / 50.9542°N 0.4493°W	Anglican	I	Largely unrestored—except for a 12th-century doorway, poorly treated in the 19th century—this stone church has many wall paintings, 13th- and 14th-century windows and an enormous hagioscope. The nave and chancel are both aisled, and a shingle-clad bell turret with 17th-century timberwork sits on the roof. Also dating from that time is the king post ceiling.	[314][317] [38][318] [319][320] [321][322]
St George's Church		West Grinstead 50°58′25″N 0°20′01″W / 50.9737°N 0.3337°W	Anglican	I	A simple two-cell stone church topped by a visually dominant, although low, tower with a shingled "Sussex cap", West Grinstead's parish church is mostly 12th- and 13th-century but retains 11th-century blocked windows on one side of the nave. There is some 14th-century stained glass, and more by Charles Eamer Kempe in 1890 and 1892. The west-facing porch is timber-framed.	[223][323] [324][325] [326][327] [328]

A French priest, Mgr Jean-Marie Denis, founded a church next to it in 1875. Intended to be a "miniature French cathedral", the French Gothic Revival flint and ashlar building was designed by John Crawley. Hilaire Belloc worshipped here and is buried in the churchyard.

James Powell and Sons' stained glass of 1859 (Jesus walking on water) has an unusual, "weirdly effective colour scheme". The entrance is in a porch on the south side.	[333][334] [335][336] [337]
St Peter's Church		Woodmancote 50°55′17″N 0°14′59″W / 50.9214°N 0.2498°W	Anglican	II*	Henry Woodyer's restoration of 1868 gave the church its present Victorian appearance; only the original king post ceiling and a piscina survive from the original 13th-century building, successor to the original 11th-century church. The plan consists of a chancel, aisleless nave, porch and bell turret. The 12th-century font has Sussex Marble work.	[338][339] [340][341]

This brick building on Rushams Road in the northwest of the town dates from 1885; it closed in the early 1920s. It was later acquired by the British Red Cross and was used for the provision of mobility aids, but in August 2016 it was announced that the centre would be closed and the building sold.	[30][40] [178][365]
Salvation Army Citadel		Horsham 51°03′45″N 0°19′28″W / 51.0624°N 0.3244°W	Salvation Army	–	This building replaced the original Salvation Army place of worship on Springfield Road in 1969.

Maplehurst Congregational Mission Room		Maplehurst 51°00′47″N 0°18′13″W / 51.0131°N 0.3035°W	United Reformed	–	Horsham Congregational Church founded this wayside red- and yellow-brick building as a Congregational chapel in the mid-1890s. Services had started a few years earlier in a small room in the village. It joined the United Reformed Church when that denomination was formed in 1972, but declining use led to its closure soon afterwards.	[209][213] [367]
Providence Congregational Chapel		Marehill 50°57′19″N 0°29′12″W / 50.9554°N 0.4868°W	Congregational	–	Serving the east end of Pulborough, this stuccoed Classical-style building with arched windows was erected in 1845 for the Congregational community. It became redundant after a new church was opened in the centre of Pulborough, and was sold in 1947 for conversion into a shop. The building was refronted in 2002.	[209][213]
St Mary the Virgin's Church		North Stoke 50°53′15″N 0°33′05″W / 50.8874°N 0.5514°W	Anglican	I	The dedication of this unrestored, partly 11th-century church was rediscovered in 2007 after it was lost centuries earlier. Worship ceased in 1992, and the cruciform stone building was placed in the care of the Churches Conservation Trust. The transepts have excellent windows and date from about 1290, and medieval carvings abound.	[363][368] [369][370] [371]
Jarvis Hall		Steyning 50°53′14″N 0°19′30″W / 50.8872°N 0.3251°W	Plymouth Brethren	II	Now in residential use, this Nonconformist chapel has housed four different congregations since its construction in 1835. Rev. Edward Lambert of Brighton founded it for the Countess of Huntingdon's Connexion, but the cause soon failed and Wesleyan Methodists bought it in 1843. The Salvation Army used it for a time, then between 1907 and 1987 Plymouth Brethren worshipped there. The simple Neoclassical building has a stuccoed façade, four large pilasters, arched windows and a pediment. The Methodist congregation moved into the new Steyning Methodist Church in 1878.	[265][273] [266][372] [373]

Former Chapel at Toat Farm		Toat Farm, Pulborough 50°59′13″N 0°30′37″W / 50.9869°N 0.5102°W	(Unknown)	II	Now a farm building, this 18th-century ashlar-built room was apparently founded as a chapel. Round-arched windows and a tiled roof survive, and there is a font inside.	[374]
Church of the Holy Sepulchre		Warminghurst 50°56′25″N 0°24′41″W / 50.9403°N 0.4114°W	Anglican	I	This 13th-century church, declared redundant in 1979 after an initial temporary closure in the 1920s, stands in a thinly populated part of Ashington parish on the site of an 11th-century predecessor. It belonged to St Andrew's Church in Steyning for many years, after a period of annexation to Fécamp Abbey.

One of their chapels was founded in 1874 at Warnham. The arch-windowed red-brick building remained in use until 1976, when a declining congregation resulted in the building's sale and residential conversion.	[38][317] [39]
Watersfield Baptist Chapel		Watersfield 50°56′00″N 0°33′29″W / 50.9333°N 0.5581°W	Baptist	–	This building has been converted into a house and has been altered. It dates from 1901 and was built of stone and red brick with round-arched windows and bargeboards to the gables.	[38][317]
Watersfield Congregational Chapel		Watersfield 50°55′56″N 0°33′29″W / 50.9323°N 0.5580°W	Congregational	–	This red-brick chapel and its graveyard survive intact despite being disused and neglected. The building, which has round-arched windows, was erected in 1823.	[38][317]
St Mary's Church		Wiston 50°53′58″N 0°21′30″W / 50.8995°N 0.3584°W	Anglican	II*	Gordon Macdonald Hills's restoration of 1862 was criticised by Pevsner, who noted that its original appearance was largely 14th-century—although a church stood on the remote site in the 11th century. Memorials include one to Thomas Shirley of Wiston House, which is now the only nearby building. Use of the church declined after the population shifted northwards from the 19th century, and the church was declared redundant in 2007.	[17][363] [378][379] [380][381] [382]
