Hildersham - Holy Trinity from SE 2015-12-31

C13 W tower with lancet windows (one is visible below the bell openings); aisles were added in the late C13. However, the church was extensively restored and altered in the C19 - the S porch was added (or rebuilt), the tower heightened (1878), the S transept added (replacing a chapel demolished at the start of the C19) and the chancel rebuilt (1855) in style of c.1300, to the designs of C.A. Buckler. The work was carried out during the incumbency of the Robert Goodwin from 1847; according to the church guidebook, Goodwin had been a leading light in the Cambridge Camden Society during his time at the University and financed some of the work himself, along with his widowed sister, Elizabeth Hemington-Goodwin.
