Pevsner missed this one, but from the Church website it was consecrated in November 1868. The tower was added in 1876 and the clock in 1920 as a war memorial. The spire became unsafe and was removed and a new top added to the tower in 1929. The extension to the left blends with the old church whilst being unmistakably 20C in style.
