"The present day stone church was probably started late in the 12th Century replacing a previous wooden church dedicated to St Mary. A survey conducted in 1994 indicates that the Chancel dates from around 1160.
About 1220 the tower and nave were added. The nave aisles were constructed and a spire raised around 1290.

On the south side of the chancel are three-graduated ‘Sedilia’ and a ‘Piscina’ niche and there is another Piscina niche in the south aisle."
