The church is a Grade II* listed building
From the church website at (
visit link) :-
"The original church building is of Norman origin (C1200), but it was enlarged to its present form in the 14th century and modernised in the 19th century. The floor tiles are oldest in the west end, but the Victorian reproductions have faithfully copied the original medieval designs. Some of them show the family crests of de Beauchamp, D’Abitot and Swynford.
The present seating in the church was donated by members of the Douglas family in 1885, when the church was ‘otherwise adorned and beautified’ by them. The carved wooden pulpit with two brass candlesticks dates from this time, as does the fine brass Lectern dedicated to the memory of the Reverend Henry Perceval."
