Tuxlith Milland Churches

Tuxlith Milland Churches

It is quite something to come to this church and to realise that in fact there are two of them. In the background of this image is the active parish church for Milland, St Luke's, built in 1878 to hold a larger (and keep warmer) local congregation. In the foreground is the possibly Saxo-Norman Tuxlith chapel, now looked after by the Friends of Friendless Churches. Roman roads crossed the heaths on which this isolated chapel of ease was built for access to prayer for travellers, now it is close to the Surrey settlements of Liss and Rake as well as the Sussex village of Milland. It is one of the few churchyards where we have found sphagnum growing on grave mounds outside of Scotland.
