History
The present church dates from about 1490 on a site probably occupied by a church in the Anglo-Saxon era.[3] The church was restored and a north aisle was added by the Lancaster architect E. G. Paley in 1862–63,[4] at a cost of £1,000 (equivalent to £90,000 in 2021).[5][6]
Architecture
The church is constructed in ashlar stone in Perpendicular style. The plan consists of a three-bay nave with a north aisle and a south porch, a two-bay chancel, and a west tower. The church is battlemented throughout with pinnacles and gargoyles. The tower is in two stages, with a three-light west window in the lower stage and two-light bell openings in the upper stage. The east window has three lights, and contains stained glass by William Wailes. The font is from the 15th century, and the pulpit is dated 1637. The pews date from the 17th century. In the church is a late 16th-century memorial with recumbent stone effigies.[2]
