St Mary's Church Binsted

St Mary's Church in Binsted is a delightful single aisle and chancel dating from around 1150 AD. The simple Norman architecture brings a sense of peace. The interior includes remnants of a 13th century wall painting showing a woman wearing a royal crown - possibly St Mary, Queen of heaven.

The small churchyard gives wide views over the surrounding countryside across a small valley heading south towards the sea.
