Description

The church has a four bay, N nave arcade dating from the first half of the 13thc. The chancel was rebuilt in the 14thc. but the jambs and their imposts indicate that the earlier, 12thc. chancel arch was partially retained. The tower and much of the nave were built in the 15thc.

History

The rectory was appropriated by Cirencester Abbey, and a vicarage had been created by 1195.
