Church of St Clement, Old Romney

About

St Clement's Church is an Anglican church, in the village of Old Romney, Kent, England. It is a Grade I listed building. The church is dedicated to Saint Clement, a successor to Saint Peter at Rome.

It is built on an artificial mound to protect it from floodwater. It is thought the original church was built in the 8th century. In the 11th or 12th century the Saxon church was replaced by an early Norman church, aisleless and with a square-ended chancel.

It was enlarged in the 13th century. The present building, mostly of the 13th century, has a nave and chancel, and there are north and south chapels. There is a small tower, with south-east and south-west buttresses, in the south-west corner, and a north porch.
