It is an active Anglican parish church in the deanery of Bridgnorth, the archdeaconry of Ludlow, and the diocese of Hereford.

[3] The present church was founded by Roger de Montgomerie, 1st Earl of Shrewsbury, who died in 1094.

[5] In 1902 the top two stages of the tower were rebuilt, faithfully copying the original design, by W. Wood Bethell.

The northwest buttress of the tower, which was added in the 15th century, projects inside the church forming a round-headed niche, known as the 'seat of penitence'.

The altar rail dates from about 1912, it is in Arts and Crafts style, and was made by F. Waldo Guy, brother of the vicar of the church at that time.

[4] The stained glass in the east window dates from 1858, is by Frederick Preedy, and depicts the Te Deum.

The oldest monument in the church is a carved slab to Richard Spicer, who died in 1448 and his wife.

The monument to Sir Robert Broke, who died in 1558, and his two wives is in alabaster with three recumbent effigies on a tomb-chest, and children standing around the sides.

[4] Preserved here is a battlefield marker cross from the grave in France of Captain E.G. Gatacre, Duke of Wellington's Regiment (killed in World War I 1916).

[7] The latter was built into the wall by Stephen Pickerell, engraved by James Summerell, and erected over 1921–22, according to an accompanying 191-word inscription, claimed to be the longest on a Shropshire war memorial.

It is constructed in brick with a tiled roof and sham timber framing with plastered ends to the gables.

[12] The walls at the east side of the churchyard and the gate piers, with their pyramidal caps, probably date from the 18th century.
