The church is dedicated to St Myllin who is believed to have been a 7th century Irish monk and Bishop of Ferns. By the early 18th century the existing medieval church had become too small for the growing town and was replaced by the current building - a rare example of a church built in the reign of Queen Anne outside London. By Victorian times, however, the architecture had become unfashionable and the 'Norman' arches seen here were inserted in an effort to give the interior a more traditional feel.
