[edit] History
The church is medieval and was restored in 1882. However, mining subsidence caused the tower to separate from the chancel and the nave, and in 1896 the church was virtually rebuilt at a cost of £2,000.
[edit] Stained glass
The church contains some fragments of stained glass from Beauvale Charterhouse.
[edit] Organ
The church has a pipe organ by Lloyd of Nottingham dating from 1910. It was the gift of Major Thomas Philip Barber. The specification of the organ can be found on the National Pipe Organ Register
