The church is medieval of 12th century foundation, but has no work remaining earlier than the 13th century. In the 15th century the whole church was practically rebuilt. The nave, chancel and aisles all being of equal width and the arcade continuous from West to East gives the church a spacious appearance. The tower, added in the 15th century, is in three stages (the lower is vaulted as at Carisbrooke) and finishes with a stone spire, rebuilt in the beginning of the 17th century.
The interior of the church features a famous 15th century painting of St. Christopher. There are five bells in the tower, three of the17th century.
