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.

Parish church The plan of this church is rather odd in that the W tower, 14thc., does not align with the nave arcades, which are primarily of the 13thc. The transepts, based on their windows, are of the 13thc. on the S and of the 14th/early 16thc. on the N, as is the chancel. The S arcade is one bay shorter to the W than the N and in place of this extra bay is a Romanesque S doorway. There are also two reset 12thc. fragments in the E wall of the vestry, one loose fragment in the nave, and a Transitional wall piscina in the chancel.

S doorway and tower arch are 13thc. while the nave arcade is 14thc.; the clerestory, upper part of tower, and the chancel are late medieval. C. H. Fowler did some restoration work here in 1891. The W doorway and W window of the tower, as well as the corbel table on the S porch, are Romanesque survivals.
