This church was built in 1878 and only a very small part remains of the former building. The original church was a small and ancient structure and was re-pewed in 1842 but just 35 years later was completely demolished and this ‘modern’ Victorian church built. It was designed by William Smith and financed by the ‘Incorporated Church Building Society’. One of the original doors was saved and incorporated as the north door of the nave and the stoup set into the wall beside it. The single bellcote turret is a wooden structure with a shingled broached spire.
