Parish church From the exterior the church is substantially of 1848-49. The medieval work consists of a nave with 12thc. N arcade and 13thc. S arcade, and a 13thc. chancel with a 12thc. chancel arch. A tower was added in the 15thc., but in 1848-49 this was pulled down, new aisles were built, and the W front was remodelled. At the same time a N transept with an organ gallery and a N vestry were added. The W doorway looks entirely neo-Romanesque, but includes some re-used 12thc. pieces and is described here, along with the early 12thc. chancel arch, the N arcade of c.1170, and the slightly later font.
