Grade I listed medieval Anglican church dating back to the 12th century, although the main 39.6m tower was built in 1461 when Tenterden was at its height of the wool trade (the tower is constructed from Bethersden Marble, a limestone that contains thousands of brightly coloured shells). The church is dedicated to the prominent Anglo-Saxon saint, Saint Mildred, who was a 7th-century princess serving as the abbess of the nunnery at Minister-in-Thanet. The grounds include a graveyard and benches for quiet contemplation. If you found my review or photos helpful play Please leave a quick thumbs up 👍 Thank you

Interesting historical church, with a tall tower, is well looked after inside, but the graveyard is a little unkempt. I believe the tower was a navigation aid, when, 100s of years ago access to the sea was only a couple of miles away at Small Hythe.

The flower festival was very good and had some lovely displays. The tower was open for anyone to go up the 132 steps if they had the energy and there was tea and cakes afterwards.

Lower section of the church was built 1100's and tower was 1500's. We came to look for ancestors in the cemetery, unfortunately most of the gravestones were illegible. Walking around inside we found some plaques with family name and found the church to be beautiful...

We visited to see the model railway exhibition and took the opportunity to climb the tower. The steps are a small and not much room for passing, hence why they restrict the numbers allowed at any time. The views from the top are amazing, definitely...
