Architecture
St. Margaret's is a medieval church built from flint, ashlar and brick. Its architecture consists of a 13th-century west tower, a wide 15th century nave with large windows and a hammerbeam roof, a south porch built in the 15th century, formerly two storeys high and with an 18th-century Dutch gable with a large pediment and dentil cornice, and a chancel which was rebuilt in 1912. There are decorated 15th century south doors and inside is an early 13th century octagonal font, a stained glass depiction of St Margaret in the east window and a 15th-century altar cloth made up of parts of vestments. Archaeological monitoring of the 2012 excavation of a cable trench in identified the 15th century foundations of a buttress and a possible crypt to the west of the 13th century tower.
