Please read our .

Summary

Original 14th-century work survives in the east wall of the nave, including the lower courses of the chancel-arch responds, and also in the east wall of the South Aisle and the eastern part of its south wall. The rest of the Nave, the West Tower and the western part of the south aisle are largely of the second half of the 15th century; the north wall of the nave, part of the south wall of thesouth aisle and the whole North Porch were rebuilt in 1864. The Chancel was largely rebuilt in 1864 but the faculty petition (Salisbury Diocesan Archives) shows that the original foundations and probably the lower courses of the N. and E. walls were reused
