Description

Nave with N aisle, aisleless 13thc. chancel with an added N vestry and Perpendicular W tower, all in flint and pebble rubble. The N nave arcade looks 14thc., but the aisle wall itself is c.1200 (windows), so the present arcade must replace an earlier aisled arrangement. The late-12thc. N doorway is protected by a porch.

History

The manor (3½ hides) was held by William de Warenne, and Nicol under him in 1086.
