The present church building is the third to stand on this site. The first church to be built here was Saxon. This would have been built of wood, so no traces of it remain. In a way all the material evidence of its existence is a piece of inscribed stone which was found in Yarm in 1877 by Canon Greenwell of Durham.

The remains of the second church, the first stone one built by the De Brus family in the latter half of the 12th century are rather more substantial as they form part of the west end and the base of the tower of the present building.

In 1728 the Norman church was so badly damaged by fire that it had to be rebuilt. The Georgian church was completed by 1730 re using much of the stone from the earlier building.

The last major addition to the structure of the building was in 1906 when the choir vestry was built by Mr J W Todd of Liverpool in memory of his parents James and Mary Todd.
