Please read our guidance about the use of Dorset Historic Environment Record data.
Summary
The chancel is around 1400 in origin but was extensively restored in the eighteenth century. Similarly, the nave is also fifteenth century with eighteenth century alterations. The West Tower is fifteenth century, but its upper stage was rebuilt in the eighteenth century. The north aisle formerly had a ceiling dated 1624 but this seems to have been removed in a church restoration of 1873, at which time the south chapel and north porch seem to have been built. The building is banded ashlar and flint, with ashlar dressings, and the roof is slated and tiled.
The record for this monument has been enhanced with support from Wessex Water.
