St Nicholas Church, Godstone

St Nicholas Church, Godstone Share in with the life of St Nicholas, Godstone and its community. The church of St Nicholas lies half a mile from the village of Godstone.

There has been a place of worship on the site since Saxon times when Church Lane was part of the Saxon village of Wolcnested, later Walkingstead. The Normans built a church where St Nicholas church stands today. Nothing is known about the earliest church on the site except that it had typical Norman chevron moulding around the round-headed doors. Some original stones can still be seen in the rebui

lt west doorway. The current church building is the product of Gilbert Scott’s 13th century style restoration in 1870-71.

Thank you to those who came to Peter’s tour of notable graves in the churchyard. Peter’s enthusiasm was contagious and we all came away with a new appreciation of our churchyard.

The post tour tea and cakes were welcome and a chance to chat about what we’d learnt.

Over £200 was raised for the Friends of St Nicholas which will help fund our high maintenance costs.
