Full Description
Site of former medieval church, replaced c1850s by a new church after the death of a rector who had allowed the old building to fall into ruin…he thought Kilvington had no need of its own church, which was used for a time as a sheep-fold, and was actually offered for sale as building material. Its one ancient relic is a worn chalice and paten of thin pewter, dug up 40 years ago after having been buried with a priest before the Reformation. (1)
