Brief Description:
The church was build around 1340, but the presence of a 700 year old Sanctuary/Saunce Bell indicates a Christian community or church even earlier. Due to its high location, 175ft tower and reputation as a landmark for mariners navigating The Wash, the church has been called ‘God’s rocket to heaven’!
