All Saints’ Church in Dibden is a beautiful Norman 13th Century Grade II listed building. It is surrounded by an attractive churchyard with views over Southampton Water.
The original church building was struck by incendiary bombs in the early hours of on Thursday 20th June 1940, and completely wrecked by fire. It was later completely restored in 1955. The lychgate serves as the village war memorial – the names of the fallen of two world wars are carved on the inside of the arch.
