The church dates from the early 13th century.[3] Several carved figures are positioned around the outside of the church.[4] The south porch has a parvis room,[5] which would have been made for the priest.[6][better source needed]

St Tibba is said to have lived in the village[4] in the 7th century.[5] She was buried in the church but in the early 11th century her relics were translated to Peterborough Abbey by Abbot Ælfsige (1006–1042).[7][8] The remains of a small hermitage associated with the saint can be seen on the west side of the north aisle of church.[9]

In 2019 leaking roofs had become a major problem and the church was added to the Heritage at Risk Register. Work on the roof was completed in late 2022 and the church removed from the register.
