17th century | The building originated as a barn, then became the coach house to the nearby hall, and in about 1838 was converted into a chapel for the hall. The hall was demolished in 1952, and the church was incorporated into the parish of Bunbury. It is built in brick with a slate roof and has a rectangular plan, consisting of a nave and a chancel, with a timber-framed porch. The furnishings are Jacobean in style.[2][3] |
