The parish church of St Augustine in Dodderhill overlooks the town of Droitwich Spa and is Droitwich's oldest church. The church is Norman but was built on the site of a Saxon church, and maybe even a Roman fort. St Augustine was built in the late 12th century and finished about 1220. The north transept and crossing are surviving parts of the original church.
The church was badly damaged in the Civil War with parts of it blown up. The church was restored in the early 18th century, reusing original masonry if possible. The tower and south transept were rebuilt, the tower being moved so it was over the transept. The church has no nave. Much of the church is made from dressed sandstone with some later additions being brick.
