History

There has been a church here since medieval times. The medieval flintwork chancel remains although in the early-17th century St John the Baptist was rebuilt at the expense of the Lord of the Manor, John Goode (d.1627), to whom a tablet was erected in the chancel. In 1875 a new nave and chancel were built by T G Jackson.
