DedicationThe church gets its unusual dedication from the fact that in the medieval period there was a life size alabaster head modelled from the relic which was believed to be the real head of John the Baptist[3] which was kept at Amiens Cathedral. The head was kept on a shrine alter and during his time period the church became a place of pilgrimage for people all over the country to see the head rather than travel to Amiens. DescriptionThis small flint church stands on the coast road in the centre of the village of Trimingham. The main gateway into the churchyard is through a thatched lychgate[4] on church street. The roof is slate and tiles[2] with leadwork. The greater part of the church is built in the Perpendicular style[5] and has a rather short squat west bell tower[2] which was built around 1300 and has no parapet.[5] A prominent feature of the churches bell tower are the large solid stone dressed flint buttress[4] on the corners of the tower. The buttress to the north west corner has a bench mark[6] carved into the masonry at its base.
