St Nicholas, North Stoneham
St Nicholas is "An intriguing and problematical building...". The church was rebuilt at some time between 1590 and 1610 with older features, possibly from other buildings, incorporated; it was restored in 1826 and again later in the 19th Century. (The Buildings of England: Hampshire & the Isle of Wight, 1985)
