A grade II* listed building, built between the late 12th and early 15th centuries replacing a saxon building that had stood since 685AD. Though largely restored around 1860, it has a beautiful chancel, Lady chapel and baptistery. Fragments of Norman work are left; the interior is elaborately adorned with sculptures and stained glass.
The screen and gates at the entrance to the forecourt of the church was built in 1814 by Jeffrey Wyatt.
