Our 11th century Grade I listed church is in the Conservation Area of Monks Risborough.

It is described in 'Pevsners Architectural Guide' as having a 'secluded rural character' and is noted for its Norman Font of typical Aylesbury design. The building is of a flint construction dating from the early 11th century.

The peaceful and well kept churchyard has recently be extended with the creation of a wild meadow.
