Southwick's strong support for the Baptist movement has been a long and important one, dating back to the seventeenth century. With a new church built in 1815 a short walk up the road, this old pool close to the Lambrok Stream was used for baptisms. It was rebuilt and rededicated in 1937. Grade II listed.
