History
A church which was in the possession of the Premonstratensian abbey of Titchfield from the 13th century. It was given to the abbey by Geoffrey de Lomer. It remained in the hands of the abbey until the Reformation, when the crown granted it to Thomas Wriothesley.
The village of Lomer was abandoned and the church in disuse by the end of the 16th century. Today nothing of either remains, although by tradition the church stood on a site today known as Chapel Field.
