History
edit
The church originates from eleventh century, and was extended until the fifteenth century; with the North aisle added in the thirteenth century, the south aisle in the fourteenth century, and the tower and clerestory dating from the fifteenth century. The church was restored in the nineteenth century. Some masonry may have moved to St Peter's when the nearby church in Washingley was abandoned.
