The church sits at the centre of the parish of Claines, with the very well known and popular 'Mug House' public house in the church grounds.

Remains from the church’s early life and history can be seen just inside the church, there are fragments from a Saxon cross, an ancient gravestone with scissor markings, as well as remains from a Norman arch and some ancient stained glass from the medieval church.
