There's something simple and straightforward about this little church which to me, at least, is very attractive. As for history, the nave dates from the 15th century. It has the typical clerestory of the Perpendicular period (the nave is taller than the aisles which flank it) - so that daylight streams into the body of the church from windows up above. The clerestory is seen more clearly here:http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/2303149
