Listing NGR: SE9248522463 [2]

The lower stage of the west tower '..is built almost entirely from reused stones, many of them not indigenous to the area and many displaying clear signs of having been taken from Romano-British structures, which Dr Rodwell suggested lay within the nearby Roman town. By analogy with other examples locally, this reuse of masonry might itself be thought to
date the tower to the period between c1000 and c1200; and, furthermore, the tower appears to be stratigraphically earlier than the mid 12th-century aisles. Unfortunately, however, the tower retains none of its original architectural details..' [3]
