St John the Baptist Chapel, Smallhythe, Kent

            Built of brick in 1516 after a large fire destroyed the whole village, Smallhythe church is a simple rectangular box, rather taller than it need be, its exterior height emphasised by the crow-stepped gables that rise in ten steps. 

It is unusual in its use of red brick for its construction, and it is thought that the bricks may have been imported from the Low Countries in exchange for timber from the Weald of Kent. The stepped gables of the west and east walls indicate Dutch influence.
