History edit
The nave was built in the 11th century with the south porch being added in the 14th and the tower in the 15th.[1][2]
In 1876 the church underwent Victorian restoration by Frederick S. Waller and further restoration was carried out in the 1950s and 1960s.[3][4]
The parish is part of a benefice centred on Brimpsfield within the Diocese of Gloucester.[5]
Architecture edit
The limestone building has a stone slate roof.[1] It consists of a nave, chancel, south porch and a north vestry. The two-stage saddleback west tower has six bells including one dating from 1320.[1][3][6][7]
An Anglo-Saxon door, with a tympanum over it, is now blocked up.[8]
