The church was built using Roman stones including a re-used Roman arch, believed to have been removed from Birdoswald fort across the river to the north.[1] The old roofless Bastle house just to the east of the church was at one time a Vicarage.[2]
An accident at the level crossing on 24 December 1970 led to a Department of the Environment report.[3] The level crossing is automated even though there are very few residences on the north side of the line, and the road north of the line is a dead end.
