The bus stop is right outside and there is parking too. There are steps down into the church but the graveyard is accessible to all. The Norman tower (5'thick walls) is the oldest part of the church and the interior is plain and restful and is a great example of late 13th century work. There are four later stained glass windows, box pews and a lovely oak pulpit. Certainly worth a visit.…

Beautiful church right on the main road (the car park is behind). Lots of interesting features from different periods. Well worth visiting in my opinion.

It's in 'the book' (Simon Jenkins' "Thousand Best Churches") and indeed, we found it is rightly in the top half dozen worth seeing on the Isle of Wight. Amazing tower - like a Norman castle keep in miniature - and fine Norman north door. Inside still has an 18th century feel with box pews. Charming monuments too.…
