Description

The church was built in 1892-3, but the foundations of the original church, except for the W part of the old nave, remain to its E. The 12thc. font and sculptural fragments were moved to Alfrick church in 1974, when the church was sold and converted into a private house.

History

At the Dissolution, the manor belonged to Great Malvern priory. Lulsley was a chapelry of the church of Suckley, which was given to Cormeilles Abbey in Normandy by William, Earl of Hereford, before the time of DS.
