Bishopstone, generally assumed to be a minster church, was not identified as such in a recent survey of parochial development in 11th-century Sussex.1 Despite that omission, the church incorporates some Anglo-Saxon architectural features, and manuscript evidence of the status of its chapelry at South Heighton has now come to light. This article considers the date and circumstances of its foundation, the extent of its parochia and its place in the historical topography of the hundred of Flexborough.
