A well situated church serving the village. This church was mentioned in the historical record in a Papal Tax document of 1291 during the reign of Edward I of England. The oval churchyard indicates an ancient religious site, along with a number of extremely old Yew trees. Inside the building the bowl of the font dates from the 13th century and the beautiful barrel roof over the chancel is perhaps 14th century.
