Summary

[edit]
Description
English: St George's church - east window. St George's church > 668599 is located about 2 kilometres northwest of Hardingham, a village consisting of scattered hamlets and groups of houses. Like a number of other churches in this area, St George has its tower not at the west end but at the south wall > 668600. The interior was extensively restored during Victorian times > 846796 - 846827 - a piscina, the George III royal arms and a C13 font > 846833 - albeit broken - have survived. A few interesting C17 ledger stones > 846822 - 846825 can be found on the chancel floor; the west end of the nave has been devoted to villagers lost during WW1. The stained glass windows (one seen here) date from the 19th and early 20th centuries. A window in the west wall commemorates Major William Mordaunt Marsh Edwards VC who won the Victoria Cross at Tel-el-Kebir during the Egyptian war of 1882 > 846838. A memorial window to William Bartle Marsh Edwards of the Rifle Brigade, killed in action in Tunisia, 1943, is in the north wall > 846817. The church is kept locked but a key is available at the adjoining Old Rectory > 668609. For more information see: http://www.norfolkchurches.co.uk/hardingham/hardingham.htm
