Description

The church has a cruciform plan, with an aisled nave and chancel and crossing tower. There is some 12th century stonework, and the interior arcades and tower were added in the 14th century. The three western bays of the nave were added in the 19th century. The memorial is dedicated to Edward Green (b.4/03/1831-d.30/03/1923) who sat in the house of commons as a conservative MP for Wakefield between 1885-1892.
