We welcome all new worshippers and visitors to our historic village church. We are a friendly and growing congregation, drawn from a number of traditions, and all ages.

Although the first recorded church on the site was in the late 10th Century the oldest extant remains are four North Aisle piers from c.1170. The current North Aisle was built in the 14th Century, and a Clerestory, North and South Transepts (rare in a small parish church), South Porch, West Tower and North Chancel Chapel (now the Vestry) were all added in the 15th Century, culminating in a South Aisle of 1486.
A major restoration in 1872, as the climax of the long incumbencies of the Daltrys, father and son, and largely funded by Lord Crewe, swept away the 13th Century Chancel replacing it with a new structure, incorporating the old North Chapel.
We are now (2007/09) undertaking a major re-ordering of the church, revealing the hidden 1872 tile work in the Chancel, clearing the Lady Chapel (South Transept) and Aisles of old pews, the wood from which is being used to construct new screens, cupboards and book stands, and replacing the lost 1872 reredos with a new piece, supported by a grant from the Borough Council. With only a small amount of internal work to be completed, we have installed new lighting at the start of 2009, revealing more of our painted ceiling, and constructed a disabled access ramp in the churchyard.
