Parish church St Mary's is a large cruciform church of the fenland. Like many parish churches, the fabric of Sutterton reveals a long history of transformation and renovation. The chancel and clerestories of the transept, and the N transept, are of the 13thc. though the chancel was restored in 1879 by James Fowler. From the exterior the nave and aisles are of the 14thc./15thc. A major restoration in 1861-63, carried out by Edward Browning, included the rebuilding of the tower, spire, aisle walls, S transept, and chancel. The S porch was added in 1861. The Romanesque survivals here are extensive: the N and S doorways into the nave, portions of the five-bay nave arcade, and the W crossing arch, and the E responds of the S and N crossing arches.
