Our present Victorian church may be relatively recent, but there was probably a church on this site as early as the 12th century.The church was first mentioned in the Taxation of 1250 and the first recorded Rector was in 1272. There is a grave and memorial stone for Hester Woodley, a West Indian slave to the Woodley Family. Little Parndon Manor which used to face the church was owned by William Smith, Grandfather to Florence Nightingale
Look for a small camoflauged plastic container which contains a few swaps. It is outside the church grounds.
