St Swithuns Chapel 1860
When there was no local church in Crampmoor the church
services were held in large room in a James Feltham’s house
in Winchester Rd nearby.
In 1858 Caroline Rolfe and her sister-in-law Jane Feltham
and Caroline Suckling of Highwood House, all equally donated
the funds to build a combined church and school room at St
Swithun's Church. So it was conceived and paid for by the
three ladies.
