Church of St Peter, Upper Beeding - Horsham

Medieval church built of a mixture of ashlar and rubble stone with areas of flint. The roofs have stone slabs on the outer slopes and tiled inner slopes. The church is at risk due to defects to the roofs, rainwater disposal system and stonework. Historic England/National Lottery Heritage Fund grant-aided repairs to the tower and valley gutter, and repairs have been carried out to the chancel roof and gable walls. However, further repairs are required to the rainwater drainage and the window behind the organ. Some work to the dangerous church walls was carried out in 2021.
