This Cut Bench Mark is on the South East corner of the Church.
St Mary's Church at Tarring Neville is situated just off the A26 as you leave Newhaven or South Heighton, travelling towards Lewes and looks across the beautiful setting of the Ouse Valley. The word "Tarring" is thought to refer to the people who settled in the area in Saxon times, while the word "Neville" refers to the family who later became landowners. This very ancient church building has been a place of worship for well over 800 years. The Nave and South Aisle are Late Norman (1145-1190), while the Chancel and Tower are Early English (1190-1245). Restoration was carried out in 1892. More recently a good deal of decoration and repair has taken place with help from English Heritage.
