Religion appears to have been practised here for many centuries, probably before the Domesday Book. Various buildings have come and gone but the church dates from Norman times. It was enlarged in the fourteenth century, and given a substantial renovation in the 1870s, with considerable styling based on the 'Oxford Movement' that was popular at that time. Acclaimed architect G.F. Bodley drew up most of the plans. Grade I listed.
