Monument record TR 04 NW 7 - St. Mary's Church, Eastwell

Summary

The ruins of a medieval church are located at St. Mary's, Eastwell. Due to recent collapse its remains were demolished all except for the 14th/15th century tower and the 19th century south west chapel. The west end of the church remains intact but roofless and the remainder of the walling survives only to a height of c.1.5m. 16th and 17th century tomb sculptures from within the church are now in the Victoria and Albert Museum. The church is owned by the 'Friends of Friendless Churches' and is Grade II listed.
