The original church was built in the early thirteenth century (1200-1250) and includes the three eastern bays of the nave and two-thirds of the chancel.
This building was extended to the west in the late thirteenth century, when the three western bays of the nave were added.
There is a curious pillar in the centre of the arcade that marks the join.
