"By John Welch, 1832. Exterior an impressive attempt in local stone to produce Boston Stump reduced in scale.[JB] The old church was at a distance from the centre of population - Bishop Ward presided over the vestry meeting of April 1830 that decided to build a new, and larger, church nearer the village. Bishop Ward laid the foundation stone, at a site of his choice, a mere month later. The £1714 cost was split £580 on a parish assessment with the remainder from the money the Bishop had collected in England for church building.

A major restoration occurred in 1893."
