Full Description

Original Listing Description:
Mainly C14 and C15 with a good early C16 hammer beam roof to the nave. The late C14 west tower had its C18 top stage replaced after the earthquake of 1884. The church has been constantly restored owing to subsidence or lack of strength in the original work.
