Context

Administrative/Biographical history:

Saint Mary's oldest part is 12th century and the church was largely remodelled in the 13th century. Its octagonal font dates to c.1200. Other parts of the church date from the 14th, 15th, 16th and 19th century. It was extensively restored in 1862-3. St Mary's contains the tomb of Richard Cox (d.1845), a local brewer who was responsible for perfecting Cox's Orange Pippin at Colnbrook in the adjoining parish. The church has a tower with a cupola. The doorway is Norman and the interior varies between 13th and 16th centuries. Some of the pews are 16th century. All the brasses were stolen at the time of the restoration in the mid 19th century.
