English Heritage [Building ID: 504073] (2009) notes: "Reused masonry including round window heads and now obscured chevron-ornament within the building suggests the presence of a C12th church here. A tablet in the chancel indicates that the current church was rebuilt in 1784 and the north wall, west tower, windows and stained glass are considered to date to this period. The window glass is by Faucet of Appleby. The church's interior was restored in 1853 when the pews and choir stalls were installed and the current ceiling form created. The pulpit, president's desk and font are thought to have been added later. In 1946 the roof and east end of the church were repaired. The organ was donated in 1979. "
