Overview
Historic England records a church of 1843 by B. Ferrey: a four-bay nave with miniature transepts (single-bay aisles), one-bay chancel, western tower and south porch, described as an unaltered Early English building. The fabric is white stone in coursed rubble with ashlar dressings; roofs are steep slate, with lower outshot roofs to the transepts and a low pyramid to the tower. Narrow lancets light the transepts and chancel; the nave and tower have paired lights below tracery, and the east end a triple light with tracery. The slender three-stage tower has a parapet on brackets and paired lights beneath plate tracery on each face of the top stage. A timber-framed gabled porch stands on a low stone wall.
Inside, a high pointed arch separates the transepts beneath a stone screen with a crenellated top and four cusped arches on slender columns. The listing notes a painting attributed to Van Dyck behind the altar, a white marble font with baluster stem, wall tablets and a brass of 1590. The parish history states that the church was consecrated on 5 October 1843, the gift of the Rector, the Reverend Charles Dyson, and his half-sister Mary Ann, on a site exchanged with Jane, Lady Mildmay; John Keble chose the site. A church at Dogmersfield is recorded in Domesday Book; an earlier church near Dogmersfield House was replaced when the village shifted to Pilcot.
