The earliest surviving parts of the church are late 12th century, although it also has some Perpendicular elements. The Chancel was rebuilt in 1930. {1}{2} Stained glass in this church, some of which is in situ, dates to c.1400 AD. {3} Countess Judith of Huntingdon, the niece of William the Conqueror, held land at South Witham, the assessment of which included half a church. Later, in about 1160, the Templars were given half of the same church, but it is uncertain if it was the half that was in the hands of Countess Judith at the time of Domesday. {4}{5} For the full description and the legal address of this listed building please refer to the appropriate List of Buildings of Special Architectural or Historic Interest. {6}
