Description from record TQ 67 SE 16:
[TQ 69057101] Ch.[T.U.] (1) The church at Shorne was formerly dedicated to St.Peter & St. Paul, but now only to St. Peter. The original church was doubtless small: a nave 40' long perhaps, and a chancel c.20'. A double-splayed clerestory window in the north wall of the nave has been described as a Saxon by many authorities. A north aisle was added in Norman times and later, perhaps in the 13th cent., the nave and chancel were extended and chapels added to the north and south of the chancel. The south aisle was added late in the 13th cent. and the west tower and north porch in the 15th cent. (2) [Similar information] Plan illustrtion see AO/58/58/5 (3) Shorne. A small double splayed light above the later arcade in the north wall of the nave. Period (Late 10th or 11th cent.) The nave is 21' wide and its walls (2' 6" thick) may be taken as substantially Saxon. (4) The Lady Chapel or Randall Chapel on the south side of the chancel built in the early 14th.c. was pulled down in 1876 and the present building erected. [Full description of church, substantially the same as authority 2] (5) The church is in use for divine worship. A notice in the porch gives the dedication as St. Peter and St. Paul. (6) No change. (7) Church of St Peter and St Paul. Grade II*. 13th century chancel and north chapel. 14th century north and south aisles with traces of 12th century work in north aisle. 15th century tower and porch. South chapel 1873 when whole church was restored. (8) Additional bibliography. (9)
