CHURCHES of SUSSEX
Brass Rubbings of Sussex
New Shoreham - Civilian
It is New Shoreham that has been called the finest church in Sussex. Even
Swinburne was stirred by the sight of it to write;
Strong as time and as faith sublime
Clothed round with shadows of hopes and fears
Stands the shrine that has seen decline
Eight hundred waxing and waning years.
There is a brass in the centre aisle with a man and a woman in 15th century
costume.
