The door way is in a good condition considering how long it has stood here.
The church here dates from the 12th century, and is thought to stand on the site of an earlier wooden Saxon church. There was mention of the village having a priest in the Domesday Survey of 1086. The church was enlarged in the 13th century. Restoration was undertaken here in the 1840's. The church consists of aisles nave, chancel, tower with spire and north and south transepts.
