St Mary's Church

St Mary's church, Pennard The history of this church is something of a puzzle: it succeeded as parish church another, now-ruined, St Mary's, on Pennard Burrows, which was inundated by sand and abandoned in the C16. However it would appear from several mediaeval features here that this church is as old, if not older, than the ruined church which lay a mile away, by Pennard castle and the settlement that once existed there. This church stands on the road between Southgate and Kittle near the settlement called Highway and just south of Kilvrough Manor.
