A handsome church on the outskirts of Norwich's suburban sprawl, St Mary & St Margaret at Sprowston is a handsome church though has undergone significant post-medieval alteration, including a fine brick tower added in the 18th century.

 

The whitewashed interior houses some remarkable monuments, the best being the elaborate piece to the right of the altar, whilst other impressive pieces from the latter part of the 16th century onwards can be found in the north aisle.
