The monument to John Shute is dated 1688 and that to Thomas Branch 1779.[7] The church no longer hosts regular services but is licensed for public worship and has a licence allowing the undertaking of Church of England weddings. Certain other ceremonies such as baptisms, funerals etc. can also be performed in the church. The building may also be used for community and cultural purposes. Bookings can be made by contacting the Secretary to the St. Margaret's, Babington, Charitable Trust.[8] See also
