CHURCH OF ST JOHN THE DIVINE

Patching - West Sussex

Built of flint, dating from the early 13th century. It was extended and parts of it renewed over the next 300 years. However, by the early 1700s it was in a very poor state, but it was restored and kept in reasonable condition throughout the 18th century, due to a village tax being imposed to fund this. However this arrangement ceased by the 19th century and restoration works were carried out three times in the 1800s. The last to date, and the most significant, was in 1889. It included a replacement steeple, and is largely responsible for the present neat appearance of the church. It has one bell dating from 1834.
