The west window in the tower is also a memorial window in memory of Henry Gee Barnard.  The tower contains three bells.   The chancel was rebuilt in 1847. Parish registers commenced in the year 1558.    The churchyard having become greatly overcrowded Mr Barnard  gave a  piece of land to the church in 1872 and the first burial took place on 15th November 1873.  The church grave yard was finally closed by order of the council in 1880.
