About Us

St Nicholas was bought in 1935 and was dedicated to St Nicholas in April 1935. It was formerly a Rocket House used by the coastguard to store its life saving rocket apparatus (a rocket sent a line to a ship in distress). The arch of the main door is a feature, although a porch/vestry was added in 1959. The church is located almost on the beach at Pett Level. The church has been open every day since May 2016. There is a Photographic Exhibition of old Pett Level using old postcards. Tea, coffee and biscuits are available on a help-yourself/honesty basis, and we also have a wide selection of second hand books to borrow or buy. We love people to sign our visitors book which receives many hundreds of  very positive comments every year.
