Parish Church. The church is medieval, very much restored, in fact largely rebuit,
by W Woodyer in 1856 and P M Johnston in 1906. The nave is C12, the chancel C13,
the tower 1654, the inner north aisle 1856, the outer north aisle and south porch
1906, the west end of the aisle extended and the west vestry added in 1957. The
interior of the church is largely Victorian in appearance but it is evident that
the south wall and much of the west end is C13. Open timber roof with kingpost.
Coursed and random rubble with tiled roofs. Chancel, nave with double north aisle,
north and south porches, tower at west end of nave and west vestry.
