The round tower of this church,which has only one bell,has called people to worship here for about 1000 years. The tower lacks the conventional belfry windows and doorways by which it might be dated, but its measurements, flintwork & design are similar to other East Anglian round towers of the 11th century just before the conquest.
Stepping into this church reminds one of the saxon foundations here. The font is a simple medieval one with an unusual design. It stood in the churchyard for about 50 years,growing flowers ,until it was restored to its original place.
There are some outstanding wood carvings within the church which must be seen to be admired.The altar reredos is extremely decorative, and needs to be seen to explore the finer details, and the wrought iron candlesticks fixed to the walls were made by a local blacksmith in the 1930's.
There are also several stained glass windows. Definitely a church worth visiting for its beauty and its worship.
