Sussex archaeological collections relating to the history and antiquities of the county . at present.

This was probably the first building erected on the Hides,and was surrendered with the Priory and its possessions intothe hands of the King, Nov. 6th, 1538, by Eobert Crowham,the last prior. Nearly at the north-eastern corner of the Hides stands the!fine church of St. Mary Westout, the largest and by far thlmost perfect church now remaining in Lewes. It is transitionfrom Norman to Early English, and owing to its lofty positionis a prominent object in several views of the town. The font inthis church is of very unusual form and character. There isone in the parish church of Denton very similar, but smaller.!Through the kindness of Mr. W. E. Baxter, I am enabled tcjgive woodcuts of these DENTON. MEMORIALS OF OLD LEWES. 5
