Sisland: St Mary, Sisland
The parish of Sisland is one of the smallest parishes in the county covering approximately 500 acres and, at the turn of the Millennium, the population was just 44.
Sisland is recorded in documents dating back to the Domesday Book, where mention is made of the parish having a church within Mundham. Although nothing is known of this church, the ruins of an early chapel are known close to the boundary of the parishes. The construction of Sisland church possibly started soon after the Norman Conquest, although very little of this early building remains.
In 1761 the main structure of the church was badly damaged by a lightning strike. The church was then almost totally repaired in brick. Parts of the ruined structure were incorporated into the new building which, with a few exceptions, is that which survives today.
Anyone visiting the church will be made most welcome. The church is open from April to October from 9am to 5pm.
