The church of ST. MARY MAGDALEN consists of a chancel, nave, north and south aisles and west tower. With the exception of part of the tower, it was rebuilt in 1779 in classic style. The windows have round heads and plain unmoulded architraves, and the columns and arcades of the nave are in the Roman Doric style, as is also the south porch. The belfry windows of the tower are the only signs of the former Gothic church, and of these there are two on each side, each consisting of two lights with tracery under a pointed head. In the south aisle is a brass inscription to Richard Paveley, who died 1377, and Joan his wife.

There are four bells: the first by Islip Edmunds, London, 1764; the second by Thomas Russell, 1716; the third of 1626, inscribed 'Non verbo sed voce resonabo domini laudes'; and tenor, inscribed 'Feare God & obey the Prince 1601,' bearing a shield with three bells.

The plate was presented in 1788 by Emma Maria Elizabeth, Lady St. John, and consists of a silver-gilt flagon, bowl, two plates and a cup with a paten lid.

The registers previous to 1812 are in three books. The first has baptisms and burials 1706 to 1790 and marriages 1706 to 1754; the second marriages 1755 to 1812; and the third baptisms and burials 1790 to 1812. [British History]
