St Michael's church at Cathedine occupies a rectangular churchyard on a hill slope at the southern end of the hamlet. The church was first recorded at about the beginning of the 12th century, but was almost entirely rebuilt in the second half of the 19th century. Some stonework from the earlier structure may survive specifically the west wall and the jambs of the south door which could be relics from its predecessor.
