It is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade II* listed building,[1] and is an Anglican parish church in the diocese of Chester, the archdeaconry of Macclesfield and the deanery of Congleton.[2] HistoryThe church was founded around the end of the 11th century, probably by Hugh de Mara, Lord of Lawton.[3] There is a tradition that in the 8th century the body of St Werburgh rested overnight on the site of the church while it was being carried from Lincolnshire to Chester.[4] In 1652 the church was struck by lightning and 11 people in the church were killed. The body of the church was destroyed by fire in 1798 and rebuilt by 1803.[3] Following the fire of 1798 the body of the church was rebuilt in brick in neoclassical style.[1] The cost of this was around £8,000 (equivalent to £{{formatnum:{{Inflation|UK|8000|1798|r=-4}}}} in {{Inflation-year|UK}}).[4]{{Inflation-fn|UK|df=y}} A south porch was added as a War Memorial in 1923.[4] ArchitectureExteriorThe tower at the west end, dating from the 16th century, is built of red and buff sandstone in Perpendicular style. On the south face of the tower are carved a chalice and the initials "I. B.".[1] These initials are those of the parish priest of the time, John Bybber,[3] or Byber.[5] The bell openings contain Y-tracery. On each side of the church are two lunette windows, with two round-headed windows between them. At the east end of the church is a Venetian window.[6] A Norman doorway which survived the fire has been reset in the south wall of the nave.[7] InteriorInside the church at the west end is a gallery dated 1717 which also survived the fire.[1] It was planned to refurbish the church in 1873 but the full refurbishment did not occur. At the time the old box pews were replaced with the present pews and a two-manual organ was installed in the gallery.[5] Also inside the church are the royal arms of George III and six hatchments of the Lawton family.[8] At the base of a stairway leading to the gallery is the tomb of John Byber on which are carved his initials.[9] Displayed under the gallery are some 13th-century flooring tiles which were discovered during the 1874 restoration.[10] There is a ring of eight bells. Five of these which are dated 1713 are by Richard Sanders; the other three are by John Taylor and Company, one of which is dated 1882 and the other two are dated 1901.[11] The parish registers start in 1559 and the churchwardens' accounts date from 1691.[3] External featuresThe churchyard contains the war graves of two First World War soldiers.[12] In the rectory garden is a font dating from the middle of the 18th century.[3] See also{{Portal|Cheshire}}
