The church was rebuilt in 1813 and altered again in 1886. 104 military casualties of the First and Second World Wars are buried here, and there are close links with the nearby RAF Halton. In 1931 the Air Ministry gave the ecclesiastical authorities a piece of land to the east so the churchyard could be extended. It is in this part that most of the 1939-1945 war graves lie.
