Dedicated to St Chad, the church is originally thought to date from the 11th century. Various improvements and alterations have obviously been made throughout the years since. There are three bells in the spire, one of which is thought to have been kidnapped on its way from casting in Birmingham to its planned destination in Donington, but quite why the church at Donington didn't have something to say about this is not recorded.
