"The church of ST. MARY is a modern structure consisting of a chancel, nave, south aisle, and southwest tower, and is constructed of flints with brick quoins and dressings to the windows. It was built in 1886, and is designed in a style distantly approaching that of the 13th century."

"The former medieval parish church, St Mary the Virgin, unusually stood alone on a damp site 1km from the old village for no apparent reason. Therefore it had been postulated that a Roman mausoleum was present on the site before the church was built.[2] The church was condemned in the mid-20th century and was demolished in January 1966 by the Royal Engineers.

[...]

The newer red brick parish church of St Mary, consecrated in July 1866 by the Bishop of Oxford, Samuel Wilberforce, remains as the only church in the village apart from the Methodist church in Eskdale Road."
