Overview

The exact date when a church came into existence at Cudham is not known, but there is a record of a payment of 7d for oil in the year AD 953, indicating that Cudham had a priest and a font, and in a Saxon script reference is made to a church in AD 982. St Peter and St Paul, Cudham, is designated Grade II* in the listing of Buildings of Special Architectural or Historic Interest, described as an 'Excellent multi-phase medieval church, which underwent considerable restoration in the 1890s'. The author draws on papers that have come to light over her 20 year tenancy of the ancient post of Churchwarden to write this first comprehensive history and guide to the church. Where it helps to explain something, or put it into context, she has included additional reference information. The papers hint at events in Cudham church's long history, though they can barely scratch the surface of all that has happened to and in it since the local Christians built the original one. This book goes some way to bring this history to life.
