The Church of St Mary Magdalene

The parish church, St Mary Magdalene, is mainly of the 13th century, including the tower. The church began as a chapel of ease, within the parish of Pagham. A separate parish of South Bersted was created by 1465, which included Bognor.[1] The church is a Grade II* listed building.[2]
