St Martin's church > http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/2032389 is situated on an elevation above the main road through the village of Hindringham. The church as we see it today dates mainly from the 14th century but was extensively restored in Victorian times. The building houses the original 15th century baptismal font > http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/2032415 and what is believed to be the oldest parish chest in England, dating from the 12th century > http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/2032428. It is featured on the village sign > http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/2031423. The decoration on the chest is accepted as the nearest indication of the type of adornment found on strongboxes of Norman times.
