More about this scene
The earliest reference to a church at Kingston tells of the crowning of Saxon kings and a Great Council taking place in the 9th century. There is some possible Saxon dressed stonework surviving in the fabric of the church. The Sheriff of Surrey, Gilbert the Norman, built a large church here between 1120 and 1130, but few scant remains survive of this cruciform structure; the Victorians managed to remove and destroy a Norman doorway. A new nave was built in 1370, and the church was enlarged in the 15th century. The Victorians enlarged the transepts and carried out alterations to the internal fabric of the tower.
