Worstead railway station, on the Bittern Line between Cromer and Norwich, is about 1 km (0.62 mi) from the centre of the village.

The northeast corner is crossed north to south by the Bittern railway line which runs between Cromer and Norwich.

The south aisle is larger than the north in order to accommodate an altar tomb to Oliver le Gros[8] who was Lord of the Manor who lived at Sloley Old Hall, and who died in 1448.

[8] Other internal features are some 15th-century carved bench ends, 17th- and 18th-century[8] floor tombs, 19th-century box pews and a two-decker pulpit and 18th- and 19th-century monuments,[8] some in Gothic Revival style.

The font is a fine example and is octagonal carved stone showing the seven sacraments and the Baptism of Christ with four small lions on the corners of the foot.

At one time the Le Gros family were major holders of land within the county of Norfolk and Sloley Old Hall was numbered among their manorial establishments.
