History

The church dates from the 14th century.

It was restored between 1880 and 1882 by Frederick Josias Robinson. The south aisle was extended south and east to provide additional accommodation. The organ transept was extended. A new timber roof was placed over the whole church. The walls were cleaned of plaster, and the pews were replaced with open pews. The floors were lowered around 18 inches and laid with Hereford tiles by the William Godwin Company of Lugwardine, Hereford, and a new oak pulpit was acquired. A reredos was erected by Robert Ratcliff. The restoration cost in the region of £3,700 (equivalent to £396,461in 2021). [2] The church re-opened on Easter Monday 1882. [3]

Organ

The pipe organ was installed by Bevington & Sons and opened on 20 July 1861. [4] A specification of the organ can be found on the National Pipe Organ Register. [5]
