We have a congregation of all ages, with 200 on the Electoral Roll. Located in the centre of the village, the Church welcomes people for regular and occasional services, as well as visitors from near and far.
Dating from Norman times, the church is kept open during the day. It has benefitted from recent repairs, reordering and a 21st Century Church Centre.
