The east end of the church: see Image The church is grade 2* listed (list entry number 1358969) and was erected between 1727 and 1739 to replace an earlier building nearer the river and endangered by sand extraction. This east end was an extension built in 1893-94 by the well known architect John O Scott. Beside the chancel the extension included a large organ chamber to the left of the picture and a lady chapel to the right; neither are visible in this picture.
