The Trimleys, as they are known come together at their two churches. The parish boundary runs down the centre of the graveyard between them; they stand only 100 yards apart. St Martin is a 14th century church. However, there are modern additions such as the battlements on the tower, and the nave and porch. The walls everywhere are rendered with horrible cement and no attempt at decoration or breaking up the plainness has been attempted. The font is 12th century with a square bowl and chevron decoration on the angles. The holy table is of the Stuart period with carved legs. The Royal Arms, which are carved in oak are those of George I. The parish was consolidated with its neighbour Stratton St Peter many years ago and there, nothing remains of the church.
