ST MARY. 1873 by Bartlett. - PLATE. Cup of 1563 with bands of ornament; Paten of 1567.
Mee seems to disagree about its age:
DUNTON. It is scattered on the lower slopes of the Langdon Hills. The arterial road to Southend runs between two of its oldest houses, Wayletts and Southfields. Wayletts is 500 and Southfields 200 years old. By an old farm is the red brick church in a great churchyard reaching out to a pond; in the churchyard is a 700-year-old coffin. At the west end of the church are the great beams the 15th century builders inserted to support the bell-turret.
