The Church of St Mary the Virgin, located in Swanage, England, is an ancient parish church built of the renowned Purbeck stone. Originally established as a chapel of ease for the nearby parish of Worth Matravers, it became an independent parish with its own rector in 1487.
Throughout its history, the church has undergone significant rebuilding, with the tower remaining as the oldest part of the structure. Visitors can learn more about its rich history through the booklet "A Historical Guide to the Parish Church of St Mary the Virgin Swanage," available for purchase at the church or parish office.
