The building

The original church on this site was built some time between 1070 and 1130 and would have consisted of a simple nave and chancel. Remains of the decorative work of this period can be seen in the 12th century diapered lintel over the west doorway.

The present church dates from the early 14th century, retaining much of the mediaeval building and craftsmanship. The tower was rebuilt in early 13th century style at the beginning of the 19th century, when the 75 foot high copper spire was added the Norman style square tower.
