History

The church dates from the 12th century and was rebuilt between 1882 and 1883 by Frederick Josias Robinson. The flat roof was removed and replaced with a pitched roof. The plaster on the walls was removed. The floors were re-laid, that in the chancel with Minton encaustic tiles, and the rest with wooden blocks. A new stone font replaced the old one. The pulpit which had formerly been in St Oswald's Church, Ashbourne was installed. The contractor was J Knowles of Brassington.
