The Church, dedicated to Holy Trinity, was consecrated in September 1831, and consists of western tower, nave, and chancel; the latter was added in 1842. The total cost of erection amounted to nearly £1,700. The windows of the chancel are of stained glass; the eastern one being the gift of the present incumbent. In the parliamentary returns of 1835, the living was stated to be worth £60 per annum; the gross income is now about £150. The tithes, which belong to the vicar of Stranton, are commuted for £100 a year. Patroness - Mrs. Lawson; incumbent - the Rev. John Lawson.
