Honouring Oswald of Northumbria, an Anglo-Saxon saint, this church finds its roots in the Saxon era. Subsequently, it underwent reconstruction during the 15th century, followed by a comprehensive restoration and expansion between 1840 and 1841. The tower's construction took place in the 16th century, while its clock found its home in 1891.

Within the churchyard rest the graves of notable figures such as Major General James Gunter (1833–1908), a valiant participant in the Crimean War, and Benjamin Eamonson (died 1867), who dutifully served as the vicar for an impressive span of 29 years.
