It is recorded that the church was begun in the late twelfth
century, although very little of this period remains. The chancel
was built in the thirteenth century, as was the south arcade.
The aisle and vestry generally date from the fourteenth century.
The church was extensively 'restored' in the nineteenth century
when the two porches and the tower were added.
Old foundations were dug up near the chancel indicating that the
church may have been larger at one time, but no details are
available.
The church is not to a standard configuration nor is its
external appearance typical of the area. It comprises nave and
chancel, north and south aisle. The tower and spire are at the east
end of the south aisle adjacent to the nave. The vestry is to the
north east corner of the chancel with a boiler room below. There
are north and south porches.
