A 13th century church built as a Chapel of Ease St Bartholomew’s was rebuilt in 1753 and in 1867 the chancel was enlarged and a vestry added. The interior was altered for the first vicar of the Oxford Movement in the north of England. There is an attractive and unusual bell-cote, mentioned by Pevsner. The building is in excellent condition and has a capacity of 60. The graveyard is maintained by the PCC with the help of a contractor.
