While there was already a church in Thorncombe, the current one was built, incorporating elements from the old church, in the late 19th century. Some of its older elements include the Sanctuary Chair, from 1650, or the arch under the tower, from the 14th century.
The weathercock on the tower dates back to the 18th century.
