Nature: | 'The present church is of two distinct periods. Adjoining the tower, a simple C18 hall with intersecting Y-tracery windows - now converted to a church hall - with a small cruciform church attached to it. This is of the early C19 Board of First Fruits type, though not apparently built until after 1846...' (Casey and Rowan). |
