Map
Southover Parish Church is a beautiful building steeped in history. Originally used as a guesthouse to serve the nearby priory, it was eventually deemed too small for this purpose and became a place of worship in this ‘suburb’ of Lewes. Built in 1078 by William de Warenne, the first Earl of Surrey and William the Conqueror’s brother-in-law, the short drum piers and unmoulded arches are thought to have divided the male worshippers from the female.
