St Helen's Church, Stillingfleet

The church was originally built in about 1145, from which time the nave, chancel and south porch survive.

[1] It is likely that this was the entirety of the church at the time; the Victoria County History states that "for its size it was notably well decorated".

In the 15th and 16th centuries, the upper parts of the tower were rebuilt, the chancel arch removed, the north aisle was heightened.

[2] Between 1875 and 1884,[1] the church was restored by C. Hodgson Fowler, the east end was rebuilt, a gallery was added, and new pews were installed.

[1] On the south side is the main doorway, contemporary with the church, but moved in the 13th century, when St Anne's Chapel was added.

One window in the chancel has glass dating from 1520 and restored in 1698, depicting the arms of Stillington impaling Bigod.
