History
The church dates from the 11th century. It comprises a west tower, nave with south aisle and porch and a chancel. Restoration was undertaken in 1894 when the arch between the belfry and the church was opened up.[3]
It was repaired in 1925 when the tower and west end were grouted and pointed.[4]
