[1][3] The nave of the church may date from the Anglo-Saxon era but has been considerably altered from the 14th century onward.

The tower, of which the lower parts contain pre-Conquest masonry, may stand on the site of an earlier chancel, but was extended outwards and upwards in the 12th century.

[2] In 1819 the Albury Park estate was bought by Henry Drummond, a London banker.

[5] Drummond then commissioned A. W. N. Pugin to convert the south transept of the old church into a mortuary chapel.

[2] The nave is roofed with Horsham slabs, the aisle and porch with tiles, and the transept with slates.

[2] The nave is separated from the south aisle by a three-bay arcade carried on octagonal pillars.

The walls of the chapel are painted in red and gold by T. Early, and the windows contain stained glass by William Wailes.

[2] William Oughtred, the mathematician who invented the multiplication sign, was buried in the church.
