STEYNING - ST ANDREW

            Porch: memorial to Helen Saumarez Smith, d.1939. St Cuthman as an old man, designed by Louis Ginnett for Warham Guild, installed 1948.

The first church here was built around 700 AD. Legend says it was founded by a shepherd boy named Cuthman, although it is more likely that Cuthman was someone sent by the then King of Wessex to found a church in the course of of the conversion of Sussex to Christianity at the end of the 7th century. By 858 when King Aethelwulf of Wessex, father of Alfred the Great, was buried here there was probably already a stone church, but nothing now remains of any church built before 1100. The present building is truly Norman, begun in about 1090 and finished around 1175. 
Since then the church has undergone various changes, including the building of the present tower in the early 1600s and major restoration in the 1860s, when the east window and marble reredos were installed.
