Brilliant little church. Has a memorial to Samual Plimsol and an amazing memorial to downed pilots from the Battle of Britain. There is a Hurricane propeller inside the church from a Hurricane fighter plane shot down over Lydd Ranges. No on permanent display in remembrance of the pilots and others killed in WW2.
