This Cut Bench Mark is on a North West buttress.
The church (name unknown) is near the centre of the parish: it is an ancient structure, in the Decorated style of the 13th century, having a square stone tower with four pinnacles,
The tower is 60 feet high and the walls are 4'6" thick in order to carry the enormous weight of the stone spire which rises to a height of 130 feet. There are only four remaining ancient stone spires in Sussex, the others are at Dallington, East Preston and Northiam. The spire is octagonal in shape and is flanked at the junction with the tower by four polygonal pinnacles.
