Background

History

The earliest parts of this church date back to the 12th century, while the south aisle dates to around 1280, and the chancel, tower and south porch to circa 1450.

It has a two bay chancel and three-stage tower, while the north door of the church has a tree of life tympanum. The interior includes a highly decorated font inscribed with "Hoc Fontis Sacro Peveunt Delicta Lavacro", which roughly translates to "in the sacred washing of the font sins are cleansed".
