St Bartholomew Church Wanborough

St Bartholomew Church Wanborough - revisited
A church of Saxon origin mentioned in Domesday, rebuilt in the 12th Century

Parish Church of St. Bartholomew, Wanborough, Surrey
This village church is one of the smallest in Surrey, measuring only
13.5 m by 5.5 m internally. It is of Saxon origin with Domesday Survey
evidence of a church existing during the reign of Edward the Confessor
It was originally built around 1060 replacing an earlier wooden Saxon church.
The present church being a 13th Century reconstruction by the monks of Waverley Abbey
and a later restoration of 1861.
Thus the various walls and windows have significantly different heritage.
The Victorian west brick wall now supports an external bell.
