St Mary's is another restored Norman church. Dating from around 1200, additions were made in the 1400s; a transept was demolished at that time. Restorations were made by John Colson in 1862.
The St Mary's we see here was only a few years old, and is possibly the sixth church on the site. The 1898 version was completely destroyed in a wartime air raid, along with much of the town centre.
