This is a lovely lively village church with lots of historical interest and beautiful stained glass windows depicting scenes from the gospels. The foundation stone was laid in June 1831 and the first service held 29th May 1832. Six pillars in this church, two cylindrical and four hexagonal, are all that remain of the earlier 15th century church. Alterations were made to the 1831 building in 1871; galleries in the transepts and west end removed and stone carvings added to the chancel. Further alteration took place in 1955 when the west end was converted into the Church Centre. We are blessed with a choir, a music group, a brass band, a ring of 6 bells (1872) and a team of 12 bell ringers. The stained glass windows are the work of Messrs Clayton & Bell and William Wailes.
