[5] The present church was built between 1752 and 1758 by William Hiorne and his brother David, who were architects and builders based in Warwick.

It was built at a cost of £3,468 (equivalent to £620,000 in 2023)[6] raised by public subscription, to replace the previous church at the site which had decayed to the point where it was no longer safe.

Inside, the church has three wooden galleried aisles, to the north, south and west elevations.

A grant was offered in December 2011" .. and, with locally raised funds and a large anonymous donation, work was carried out between May and October 2013.

Some time after 1550 a new Gothic church was erected, and in 1700 Bridges[10] records the inscriptions of the five bells then hanging in the tower, some of which bore the name of the Watts foundry of Leicester.

[11] In 1738, these five, together with three other bells formerly hanging in the tower of Catesby Priory, were recast by Thomas Eayre, of Kettering, into a fine ring of eight with a 16+ cwt.

Inspection by Frederick Sharpe in 1960 and later by Taylors revealed that the frame was once again moving considerably, and the bells were consequently not always easy to ring—particularly the tenor.
