Overview

Historic England lists the church (1064025, 30 November 1966). The listing dates fabric to the early thirteenth and early fourteenth centuries, mostly rebuilt in 1862. Materials are coursed limestone rubble and ashlar, with slate roofs. The plan is west tower, nave with north aisle and south porch, and a rectangular chancel. An early-thirteenth-century cusped lancet survives on the north side of the chancel; the south side of the nave shows the outline of three early-thirteenth-century arcade bays. The nineteenth-century south porch reuses fourteenth-century fragments. The parish is served with neighbouring churches through slbchurches.org.
