Grade I listed building located next to Annesley Hall, ancestral home of the Chaworth-Muster family of whom, several are buried in the nearby graveyard. The base of the square tower and the oldest 12th century fragments of the church can be seen here in addition to an evergreen Holm oak tree. The church fell into disuse after the new church in Annesley was built in 1874 to accommodate the expanding mining community.
