About this building
The church was constructed in the 13th century. However, the building was interrupted by the Black Death. The church's interior features highlight the Victorian re-ordering, under which encaustic tiles were added in the sanctuary, and alter rails, organ, and pews were installed. The medieval church also has a modern cover which was commissioned to commemorate the Millenium. In 2007, a modern icon of our patron saint was added.
