Expensively reordered by W.H. Knight in 1865-7 at the expense of local landowner Thomas Evans. In the village centre, at the heart of the community. The ordinary exterior belies the splendour within. The chancel mosaics by Salviati of Venice(1887) are major works of Victorian art and were also provided courtesy of the Evans family of the long demolished Moreton Court. Harriet Evans funded the work as a memorial to her late husband Thomas.
