War of the Roses - 1455

This medieval church was an important center for worship, gatherings, and community events in Crawley. As a parish church, it would have been responsible for spiritual care for the residents, conducting services, baptisms, weddings, and funerals. During the political turmoil of the War of the Roses, churches were also places where local political discussions could occur under the guise of religious meetings.
