Vis=1/7/1977(os) area is now developed as extension to a holiday camp. Church stood at junction of four lanes north of pusehill, it is now occupied by a bungalow. A glebe terrier of 16th-17th century date mentions it. Dean milles (1775) says that the walls on the south side and the porch were still standing, but with no tower. Foundations were uncovered during the building of the bungalow. The site is significant in relation to the missionary activity in the 5th and 6th centuries, and the chapel may be one founded by st. Endelienta, in the 6th century, and it is dedicated to her. The move of site to the present church occurred no later than the early 13th century (hoskins).
