A picture of Sutton on Sea

The Anglican parish church at Sutton-on-Sea (a.k.a Sutton-le-Marsh), Lincolnshire is dedicated to St. Clement's. Some centuries ago, a large part of the parish, including its church, were washed away by the sea. For many years the ruins of the parish church could be seen at very low water. The present church built in red brick in 1819, with a clumsy saddleback tower (now far from vertical), can not be considered the most beautiful of Lincolnshires churches. It has been restored several times.
