This church building is managed by Norwich Diocesan Churches Trust.

St Nicholas' Church is prettily placed on the corner of a country road. The Saxon tower has an attractive lead cap. Despite 19th century restorations, evidence of the early origin of the church can be seen in the Norman south doorway with its double shafts and splayed 11th century windows. A scar of the arcade of the no-lost 13th century north aisle and an outside piscina provide further clues as to the adaptation of the church over the centuries. The pretty Norman font features two rows of scallops around the bowl. A stone coffin lid in the chancel has a double omega sign. A charming memorial in the grass to a Rector called robin lies by the porch. This church is in the care of the Diocesan Churches Trust.
