Background
History
The church is medieval in origin, of Old Red Sandstone. The tower may be "no earlier than the early nineteenth century."* The church was lightly restored in the nineteenth century including work by John Pollard Seddon. The interior has a fifteenth-century barrel roof and contemporary fittings. It also has some notable stained glass windows of the nineteen twenties and of the later twentieth century, including a "brilliantly coloured" "Genesis" window by Geoffrey Robinson.
