Description

The church is on the site of an earlier church, with a later 12th century south porch in a 14th century nave, which has a north aisle. The south vestry dates to the 15th century and the tower was rebuilt between 1684 and 1685. The chancel has four bays and a three light window with tracery. To the right is a two llight window in the east end of the north aisle. The church was made redundant in 1974, and has since been used as a warehouse for the Theatre Royal and as the National Centre for Early Music.
