Description
The 12th-century church at Lullington, a tiny hamlet situated in East Sussex on the South Downs, claims to be the smallest church in England. It measures a mere five by five metres. Technically, it is not a church at all but the chancel (the part near the altar) of an all-but destroyed larger church that once stood on the site.
