A very small stone church in a rural location, of 13thc. appearance. The single-cell nave contains 15thc. pews. There is a square-ended chancel, and considerable amounts of brick walling. The church contains a plain font.

Didling is not mentioned in the Domesday Survey.

A notice in the church claims that the font is 'Saxon', and that it is hewn from a block of Bracklesham stone; Nairn and Pevsner suggest that it is 'probably 12th century'. In fact, it is such an unskilled piece of carving that it is impossible to date. The preponderance of plain Romanesque fonts in the area (e.g. Chithurst, Bepton, Cocking), and the dearth of Anglo-Saxon material, makes it probable that the font dates from the 12thc. It is not inconceivable, however, that it dates from the 13thc., like the church.
