A timber, wattle and daub church was present on the site in 1299. The current church dates from the 15th century, the first incumbent Henry Dickonson being registered in 1530. The church was a parochial chapel annexed to Whitchurch until 1870, when it became a perpetual curacy.
The chancel was added in 1822 by Sir Jeffry Wyatville, when Thomas Massie was the Vicar.
In 1891–92, when John Charles Harris was the incumbent, the church was restored by Douglas and Fordham, the organ chamber was added, the plaster roof was replaced with carved oak panelling, and oak furnishings were added.
