Between the 14th and 16th centuries the church belonged to Worksop Priory. During this time the present chancel was built and the upper part of the tower rebuilt.

The church has a number of interesting features, including a plain Norman font made from one block of stone, an early sixteenth-century wood pillar alms box, some 14th century benches and the stone coffin of Dr Robert Thoroton, the 17th century antiquarian remembered for writing his county history.
