History
Tower rebuilt in 1864 by G Fowler Jones. The rest of the church contains work from 11th to 15th centuries.

Frame and Fittings
The wooden frame appears to be a Victorian copy of the medieval original. The traditional fittings, with the exception of the substantial wheels, are earlier.
Clock
A two train A frame clock by Cooke of York 1863. It is in very good condition partly due to its well designed case. It strikes the hours on the tenor.
