A large parish church near the Great Ouse, a few miles east of Bedford, largely rebuilt by Sir John Gostwick, Wolsey's Master of the Horse, around 1540. It consists of chancel, north chapel, nave, north aisle and west tower. The perimeter wall incorporates a number of re-set carved stones, including probable Romanesque material, now no longer visible.

The church incorporates a quantity of re-used building materials, which appear to have been salvaged after the Dissolution from a local monastic site. Traditionally assumed to have been from Newnham Priory, Bedford (f. 1180), the presence of the Romanesque piece points to a different site, which archaeological and documentary evidence suggests was the Cistercian abbey at Old Warden, colonised from Rievaulx in 1135 and dissolved in 1537, located about five miles to the south.

The fragment is clearly visible in a private photo of the late 1970s, but has now disappeared from view. It may have been covered by a repair to the wall, or simply have been removed. There are other pieces of re-used medieval masonry visible in the wall and inside the church, but there are no other pieces earlier than the 13th century.
