Parish Church of St Mary the Virgin, Church Road, Beddington - Sutton

C14 in origin, the church was much rebuilt with additions in C19 by Joseph Clarke. The dormer windows were added in 1914 by HP Burke Downing. The interior has decorative Victorian wall paintings and there is a monument to Richard Carew (d.1520) which is suffering from cracking and friable stone. The congregation received a grant from the National Lottery Heritage Fund for repairing the tower roof, cracks in the tower along with open joints and past cementitious repairs. These are now complete. Work still required to other church roofs and the masonry and monuments to the Carew Chapel.
