History and architecture

The church dates from the late thirteenth century or early fourteenth century and its dedication is unknown.[2] The main part of the building is medieval, although the base of the tower is earlier,[3] and the porch is later, bearing a date of 1539.[4] The church was restored in 1885-7 and again in 1951.[3] It is constructed of Old Red Sandstone.[2]

The interior of the church

The interior has a barrel-shaped ceiling from the sixteenth century and a four-bay Perpendicular arcade.[3] It also contains an elaborate coat of arms of Queen Anne, dating from 1707.[5] The altar table was carved in 1916 by a war refugee from Belgium, who was reputed to be a master carver at St. Rumbold's Cathedral in Mechelen.[6]

Services are still held at the church on Sundays.[7]
