Full Description

Site of the medieval parish church. In 1741 the chancel was said to be ruinous and a petition was submitted in 1784 requesting the rebuilding of the whole church which was described as a 'very ancient building' with chancel, nave and tower. The replacement, built at the Huttons' expense before 1793 was in a 'pseudo-classical style, externally, and more like a room than a church, within' and was presumably designed as a landscape feature. {1}
