This cut bench mark with rivet is on the front right side of entrance.
This small church is located in Cliffe, down the hill and across the river Ouse from the main part of Lewes. Although unremarkable architecturally, it has some interesting furnishings, and its gloomy interior provides a haven of peace and quiet from busy Cliffe High Street beyond.
The River Ouse regularly floods, and in 2000 the water rose over the font - the highest recorded level ever. The church has been thankfully restored, but remains at risk while the various Government agencies decide how best to prevent a recurrence.
Outside the church is a public water pump dated 1820, and opposite are some attractive old buildings, winding their way up Chapel Hill. The church is a short walk from two decent pubs, the Snowdrop and the Gardener's Arms, both of which serve real ale
