Medium (1-150)
The church is the third, maybe the fourth to be built on this site. The west tower dates from c.1320 and on its east wall (the interior back wall of the church) can be seen evidences of the churches of c.1290 and 1829.
The present nave and chancel were rebuilt in 1876 by Crickmay. They are of Purbeck Stone decorated with Portland Stone, Purbeck 'Marble' and Studland Sandstone.The nave roof rises some eight feet above the top of the tower. There are three bells, two of which are mediaeval, the largest being the original Langton tenor of c.1420, made by John Gosselin of Bristol. The church has a two-manual pneumatic organ by Binns unaltered except for an electric blower.
