The parish of Morden was one of the smallest of the ancient Surrey parishes. It centred on the parish church of St Lawrence. A church was recorded there in the early 13th century and one may have existed in late Saxon times. It was substantially refurbished in 1636 when the nave was refaced in brick and the tower was rebuilt. This was just before the Civil War and not a common time for church building. This is the view from London Road (A24).
