The nave and tower of the church were largely rebuilt in 1760-3 using the old stone. The chancel was rebuilt about 1835, and the whole building was restored about 1881. The William Lee annexe, built in 1962 from stones found under the nave floor in 1881, commemorates the traditional link between Calverton Church and the inventor (in 1589) of the stocking frame knitting machine, the principles of which remain in use.
