Church of St Mary the Virgin, St Mary in the Marsh
It is probable that there was a Saxon church on the site originally known as "Siwold's Circe". This was superseded after the Norman invasion by a stone built church with a splendid three tier tower of Kentish ragstone.
The oldest parts of the church are about 1133 AD. The chancel was extended in about 1220 AD.
Grade I listed. Link
