Quick facts
The Bayeux Tapestry includes a scene labelled for Bosham church, showing Harold stopping here before he sailed to meet William of Normandy.
The lower storeys of the tower are Saxon, and the church is mentioned in the Domesday Book.
Below the church is a 13th-century crypt, and tradition links a child's skeleton found in 1865 with a daughter of King Canute, though there is little evidence for it.
