It is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade II listed building.[1] It is an active Anglican parish church.[2] The church is in the diocese of Chester, the archdeaconry of Chester and the deanery of Chester. Its benefice is combined with that of St Peter, Plemstall.[3]

History

The church was built in 1815 on the site of a previous church.[4] The chancel of the previous church had blown down in 1802.[1] A bellcote was added during the Victorian era.[5] The interior was restored in 2001 when the chancel screen and choir stalls were removed, a toilet was provided and the entrance was improved. In 2005 the bellcote was restored after it had been damaged by death watch beetle.[4]

Architecture

Exterior

The church is built in brick with Welsh slate roofs. Some of the fabric of the 16th-century church is still present in the wall of the nave. Its plan is simple and consists of a five-bay nave and chancel in one range, a south porch, and an octagonal louvred timber bellcote at the west end. The windows on the sides of the nave and chancel are simple and round-headed. The east window is lancet-shaped.[1]

Interior

This is plain, with a raised chancel. There was formerly a wooden chancel screen. The doorway has twisted balusters and is dated 1698. In the church is a painted memorial plaque to the Whitehead family, which is probably by Randle Holme III. The font is dated 1635; it is round and decorated with the date and a single flower.[5]

External features

In the churchyard is a buff sandstone sundial. It consists of column baluster on a square base with a cap in a different stone. The copper plate and gnomon are inscribed with the date 1596 and two sets of lines and numbers. It is listed Grade II.[6] The churchyard also contains the war graves of three soldiers, two of World War I and one of World War II.[7]
