Description

The church was rebuilt in the mid-19thc., at which time aisles were added to the nave, and the neo-Norman S transept erected. There is a square chancel and a medieval W tower. The church contains a plain font.

History

Lodsworth (surveyed under Surrey?) is not mentioned in 1086. The VCH declared the font 'apparently modern' while Mee thought it 'Norman'.
