This building dates from 1220 a new church was built in the Early English style on the foundations of an earlier church. The church is cruciform in design and if you look towards the high altar you will see that the chancel is inclined to the south. It is just sixteen inches off centre but looks more. This is quite common in cruciform churches and represents the leaning head of Christ on the cross
The roof of the nave was raised in 1450 when the clerestory windows were added.
