St Mary, Rogiet.
Please bring your own pen.
The church dates from the thirteenth century, or possibly even earlier, with significant fourteenth century additions, including the tower, and later renovation and re-building in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. The original dedication was to St Hilary, which may refer either to St Eleri or to St Hilary of Arles. The high tower, the short nave and lower chancel "create a memorable profile." It is built in "the Gothic Decorated style." The dressings of the windows and the tower are of Triassic stone. The tower has an external stair-turret, ending in an "odd, octagonal cap." The interior contains some notable stained glass.
As of 2011, the church faced closure due to scarcity of parish funds.
“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.
There is also a Church Micro Stats & Information page found via the Bookmark list”
