Map

'Site of St Stephen's Church' on (S1).

R.R. Clarke (NCM) queried whether this was Langhale church.
However (S2) says that this is an error; (S3) thought that Langhale church was St Stephen's, and that this was its site, but Langhale church was not dedicated to St Stephen, and this is the site of St Andrew's church, Kirstead St Andrew.
Strangely, none of the pre-park maps inspected by Ordnance Survey showed the site of the church or any connected field names.
