Altar. Interior Of St Peter Ad Vincula Church. Wisborough Green, Sussex, UK Stock Image

Christians have worshiped on this site for over a thousand years. The western end of the nave of St Peters Ad Vincula is probably the earliest part of the present building, the hilltop site and unusually thick walls suggest that it might once have been a Norman keep. The aisles were added in the 13th and 14th centuries. when the many clerestory windows were inserted. Added in the 15th century were the two porches. The high altar is the original stone one from before the Reformation - having been hidden when Henry VIII ordered stone altars to be destroyed, it was found and reinstalled as the main altar in 1937.
