The church is an ancient structure in the early style of English architecture. Originally granted to Missenden Abbey in Buckinghamshire by William de Bocland in about 1200, from then until the Dissolution its patrons were the Abbot and Canons of then Abbey. By the end of the thirteenth century the Church had probably assumed most of the features seen today, although the tower is probably a fourteenth century addition. Much of the worn Totternhoe stonework has been replaced by Bath stone, both internally and externally. See also . . . . Image; Image; Image; Image; Image; Image; Image; Image
