St Martin's is the parish church of Dorking, Surrey. The church was originally built in the 12th century probably to replace the earlier church which was mentioned in the Domesday Book. The church was extended in the 14th century with side aisles. However little of the original church remains visible, though the original floors and walls remain in the vaults.
