Summary

[edit]
Description
English: The Old Church, Albury. At TQ063478. The nave and the original chancel, which was converted to the tower in the 12C, are Saxon. The dome on the tower was built in 1820 to replace a spire that had fallen. The present chancel, south transept and aisle were added in the 13C and the north porch in the late 15C. The porch still has its original carved wooded barge-board. Inside there is a medieval wall painting of St Christopher and a brass for John Weston, d.1440. The church was closed in 1841, when the new church was opened, but was not deconsecrated. The south transept became the Drummond Chapel and the roof of the chancel was removed. In 1974 the church was vested in the Churches Conservation Trust and the chancel repaired. It is open to visitors
