History

The church is an unusual shape and dates back to the early 12th century; parish records date back to the 1530s.

The church is Grade II* listed by the Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport as it is a particularly significant building of more than local interest.[1][2]

This church was declared redundant by the Church of England in 2018 and closed for worship. A notice in the porch now states that visits inside cannot be allowed as the building has been deemed unsafe.[3]
