2. Mediaeval and later. Coursed stone rubble with steeply pitched slate roof. A good deal restored but much mediaeval work remains, including a C14 doorway with moulded label in rear elevation. Street facade, of 2 storeys, has 3 buttresses of C15 date and the gabled north end has a 3 light moulded stone C15 window with stone mullions, cusped arches and a moulded label. A small C18 bowed shop window with glazing bars at south end of facade. Generally 5 windows with modern reproduction glazing in earlier openings. Interior has exposed ceiling beams, some chamfered. (Association with Anne of Cleves may be due to the fact that the church was once a cell of Lewes Priory, Sussex of which the revenues were made her jointure).
