There has been a Christian church on this site since at least 633 AD, as recorded by the Veneral Bede who mentioned that there was a church and a priest during the time of the Battle of Hatfield in that same year.

In 1722 a fine early Georgian church was erected to the design of Thomas Eayre of Kettering (1691-1757), surveyor, clock maker, and bell founder (the bells here are by him as well).

The interior of the church is 13th century at its best, with a wooden roof in imitation of stone vaulting and one of the best collections of Green Men in England.
