Marked with a 'blue' plaque.
Believed to have been consecrated in the 12th century, potentially on or nearby the site of an even older building. An Anglo-Saxon cemetery was discovered some 400 metres away.
It fell into disuse and was demolished in 1772. The white building was a girls' school which was built on the site in 1859 and closed in 1961.

To the west of the church, and situated behind Oliver Cromwell House, used to stand the Sextry Barn. It was once one of the largest medieval tithe barns in Europe and measured over 200ft in length. Historically, it was used to collect and store the corn tithes due to Ely Cathedral. Sadly, it was demolished in 1842

Holy Trinity Church, Haddenham
Grade I listed. Originally dating from the 13th century, it was restored substantially in 1876, and much of the exterior decoration is Victorian.
It appears very squat comparison to the length, and this is because it originally had a further section and spire. These became unsafe and were demolished, ready for restoration. Unfortunately, according to local legend, the funds raised for the rebuild of the spire were stolen. The thief fled to the Americas, and the spire and top section were never rebuilt.
Another legend states that the bells are mismatched. One was said to have been made partially with pewter, allegedly from melted plates and mugs from local pubs!
