Former church, late C14 - early C15. St Bartholomew's is the earlier of two churches in the village and may have served as a pre-Conquest minster church. Restored 1854-5 and 1863-4, The fabric is chalk and greenstone with brick patching. Roofs leak and rainwater goods and drains are largely ineffective. There is damp, water ingress and structural movement.
