The church stands on the north side of a triangular space at the junction of three roads, around which the village is built.
- None of the church seems older that c.1220, but two fragments of 12th century detail are built into the chancel arch and the east end of the south aisle. In the north wall of the tower is part of a cross slab with interlaced ornament of Saxon date. The chancel and north arcade of the nave date from around 1220, whilst the south arcade belongs to the end of that century, and the aisle walls are probably of the same date as their respective arcades. The embattled tower is a 15th century addition.
