This small, handsome parkland church is set in parkland above a river.

The tower is 17th century and the church was altered and restored in the 19th century. Inside are a Gothick pulpit and box pews, sumptuously coloured Victorian glass and a series of monuments which includes a 13th century knight's effigy, a handsome Perpendicular tomb chest and a fine bust by Joseph Wilton to Sir Robert Long.
