Background
History
The church dates from the 13th century, the nave and the south wall of the chancel probably being built at this time. It is thought that the south aisle was added during the following century, and the west tower was built in the 15th century. Restorations were carried out in 1854 and 1878. Holy Trinity was declared redundant on 1 September 1985, and was vested in the Trust on 10 June 1987.
