Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Church of the Good Shepherd, Lullington One of the smallest churches in England measuring about 16 feet square with seating for about 20. To keep with the rustic charm it has no electricity so services are only held during the summer months. Its original dedication was thought to be St Switha, its current one was given in 2000. Its history is a bit harder to fathom, the first records date from the 12th century and during the medieval period through bequests the church was extended and rebuilt and at one point had a tower. It fell into decay during the late medieval period when the community it served shrank. Archeological diggings have uncovered evidence of fire whilst tradition has it most of the church was destroyed during the Cromwellian era and rebuilt within the remaining portion of the chancel. Lullington lost its parish in 1927 when it was united with nearby Alfriston.
