A Brief History of our church
This page may take a while to load Any problems with this site please email the webmaster 
The Church lies to the south of the river Chew over a medieval bridge. It is approached along a narrow lane with the megalithic remains of three stone circles lying to the east and south. To the west of the churchyard is the Cove. 
View from Church tower looking north - east towards the Great Circle. 
The Church is entered through an outer and inner porch into the north aisle with the nave and chancel lying to the south.In the north aisle visitors will see the Norman bowl of the font and further east the small turret steps behind a glassdoor that in earlier times led up into a rood loft. Although parts date from the 13th. and 14th. centuries the interior as it is seen today shows the work that was carried out in the mid 19th. century when the building was 'in a dangerous and dilapidated state'. 
The Church has been a place of Christian worship for at least eight hundred years. Today it still sits beside the medieval house that is Church farm as it has done for centuries.
We hope if you decide to visit that you will find your visit uplifting and rewarding.
