A Norman church restored during the Victorian period. Several pieces of original medieval stained glass remain. Two windows in the north wall of the chancel have been identified as late Saxon or early Norman. The blocked up north door is Norman in style, with a rounded Romanesque arch.
It is a shame that this set of rules that we found in the bell tower is undated.
Gracilla, the wife of Salib Claudius, died at sea in 1909.
A 14th century effigy of a woman set in a gabled crocketted ogee-headed recess decorated with ball-flowers and dog-teeth.
Edward Pritchard was "Head Builder" for a local family for "upwards of 60 years".

"Tranquility" has been engraved as "Tranquillity".
