The present building is a breathtaking post-war reconstruction of an 1865 building which was bombed in 1940. The 1865 church was designed by Charles Bailey, a local architect. The apse and tower survived the bombing, and in 1947 Sebastian Comper was appointed architect for rebuilding the church. He raised the height of the nave walls by 9 feet to allow a clerestory to be formed to light the nave. This changed the profile of the church, which now has separate nave and aisle roofs. The restored church was consecrated in 1951. A church hall extension was added to the church, providing a new west end entrance. It is designed in a traditional style to 'match' the existing building. The church sits in its own garden and overlooks the green, giving a rural appearance.
