St George
Ivychurch, Kent
Long, low and with a battlemented and buttressed tower, St George's is built on a grand scale, and was perhaps always larger than its rural agricultural population ever actually needed.
Set in a part of the marshes that remains largely agricultural, St Mary's was originally built in the first half of the 12th century.
St Mary in the Marsh, Kent
The chancel, nave and tower proved to be too small for the growing population in the next century, so it was enlarged. The porch was added in the 15th century.
There is a 13th century font near the south door, and the church has an 18th century pulpit and early 19th century box pews.
In the churchyard is a simple memorial to Edith Nesbit, author of The Railway Children and others children's books.

Burmarsh, Kent
Still Norman in feel despite Victorian restoration in 1876, Burmarsh church is entered through a Norman doorway over which is carved a face that looks anything but friendly.
