This building of brick and flint, erected in 1802, is the oldest place of worship in the Parish. It is said to have been constructed by men of the village. To supply the building materials the ladies collected flints in their aprons from the surrounding fields, assisted by the children, which they brought to the site.
The inscriptions on the stones in the neatly kept cemetery provide an insight into the lives and occupations of many past inhabitants. One records an accident of 1838 when a man lost his life after falling from his cart. The headstone was erected almost sixty years after the event.
