Wall painting, mid-C13 figures in the splays of a S. window.<1>

C12 nave with apsidal chancel, extended in the C13; C15 south porch. Formerly a simple Norman nave and apsidal chancel; C13 extension to the chancel. Roman brick used for dressings. The external walls are much refaced, containing many pieces of dressed stone including mouldings and part of a newel. Internally there seem to be two periods of Norman work and the whole building is not as simple as it seems at first sight.<2> Built of mixed rubble and septaria with dressings of Roman brick and clunch. Early C12 nave, three windows in the north wall of C13, C14 and C16 with a blocked C12 window above. Early C12 north doorway with round arch of Roman brick. There are two C15 doorways to the roodloft stair. Of the three windows in the south wall two are C12 and similar to that of the north wall, the third is C14. C12 south doorway. The west wall contains a mid C14 window. The mid C13 chancel replaces a former apse - it is undivided from the nave. East wall has mid C13 windows - with lancet heads, dog tooth ornament and detached shafts with moulded bases and capitals. North wall has a C13 lancet window and one mid C14 window. South wall has 4 windows; two C13 lancets, one C12 with semicircular head in Roman brick and one C14. The doorway is C13. The south porch rebuilt in the C15 incorporates a C15 two centred timber arch and C15 tie beam with crown post. There are C13 wall paintings on the south-east window splays in the nave.<3> Nave with apsidal chancel built in the early C12. In the mid C13 the apse was destroyed and the chancel extended east. The south porch was added in the C15. Fittings etc include C13 paintings on the splays and head of the south-east window of the nave including remains of figures in black and red, a C13 piscina in the chancel, an early C14 recess in the nave, two C15 benches with shaped ends and one with the remains of popeys, a mid C13 sedilia in the chancel and C16 stained glass in the chancel.<4><5>

Site Assessment by Rodwell & Rodwell (1977) = 'The church has been substantially restored in the C19 but is still an important building especially for the Early English east end. There are no current threats. The floors have been relaid in this century.'<2>
