St Michael's is a small single-cell church, of flint, rubble and brick, probably of 12th century origin. The shingled bellcote carrying a weather vane was added in 1897. The old church was superseded by a new building within the churchyard (the present St Michael's) in 1933, after which the old church became a Chapel of Ease. It was declared redundant in 1973 and leased from 1974 to the present day by the Greek Orthodox Church. This view in the churchyard looks towards Lodge Hill.
