East Lavant was listed in the Domesday Book (1086) in the ancient hundred of Singleton as having only 26 households: and 15 villagers and 11 smallholders; it came with ploughing land, meadows and a mill, it had a value to the lord of the manor, Ralph, Archbishop of Canterbury,
In 1861, the population of the parish (with West Lavant) was 421, and an area of 2,884 acres, The main landowner was The Duke of Richmond; the third duke had acquired it in 1775.
The church of St Mary's Church was founded in the 12th century. The North aisle was added in the 13th century - one of the columns separating the nave from the north aisle remains, the others are 19th-century. The lancet window is also original. The 15th century appears to have brought the five stalls with their misericords.
(Misericords meaning) a ledge projecting from the underside of a hinged seat in a choir stall which, when the seat is turned up, gives support to someone standing.
The south tower was constructed in 1671 and the south west window nave window was inserted at the same date. Most of the north aisle, the arcade between the nave and the north aisle, much of the nave and chancel seems to have been rebuilt in 1863.
In 1628, an ecclesiastical case is preserved that relates to a game of cricket being played at East Lavant on a Sunday. Two defendants, Edward Taylor and William Greentree, were charged with playing cricket at the time of evening service.[5]
