Due to its size and space, St. George's is known as 'The
Cathedral of Romney Marsh' and is mainly a 14th century
A large church with little in the way of individual interest, but nevertheless with a great atmosphere. It consists of a fourteenth-century aisled nave with eastern chapels and a substantial west tower. Excellent rustic woodwork includes queenpost roofs, medieval parclose screens to the chapels and chancel stalls in collegiate style. The Creed and Commandments hang to either side of the crude east window. The east window of the north aisle is altogether finer, but has been infilled leaving the outline of the tracery visible. Over the south door is a good Royal Arms of George III in a deeply patterned frame. The north aisle is empty, and displays its uneven, unrestored, floor of tile and brick. At the west end of the church is a tremendously powerful tower screen (inscribed 1686 I.G.R.B.C.W) with eight little classical arches either side of a central door, and the church contains a 'Hudd' to protect the minister from the weather whilst conducting funerals.
All Saints Lydd is also known as the Cathedral of Romney Marsh. If you dont sign the log book dont log it online.
If anybody would like to expand to this series please do, I would just ask that you could let Sadexploration know first so he can keep track of the Church numbers and names to avoid duplication.
