St Augustine, Burrough Green (RGL2024)
The three 13th century sedilia and a double piscina on the south side of the chancel were needed in the 15th cent. when there were three endowed chantries, each with a priest attached. Sometimes there were four priests at Borough Greeen besides the rector.
In 1643 Dowsing smashed most of the stained glass windows. The only complete piece left is the east window. The church was soon in a poor state of repair. At some time between 1663 and 1685 the chapels were dismantled.
