From the church website:-
The Church was consecrated on September 3rd 1879 and dedicated to St Peter and St Paul. The first Rector of the new church was Robert Lawson who was incumbent for 31 years from 1864 to 1895. He also donated the Font. A few things remained from the old church; the bells, organ and some monuments.

The Victorian church has seen some changes - for example :-

1987 The Corona (Latin for crown) is made up of a circle of eight winged 'Spirit Figures' and puts a strong focus on the nave altar. It was designed and made by Anthony Robinson, as were the candlesticks on the nave altar.
