Part of the tower was destroyed in a storm in 1735 and the replacement was several feet shorter.

Restoration work was carried out in 1857 when the pews of 1751 were cut down in height to about 3 ft and the organ moved from the west gallery to a specially constructed recess.

[4] This was required due to Deathwatch Beetle damage.

[5] The organ was removed in 1857 by the same builder to receive repairs and was improved with an additional octave of pedals.

When returned to the church it was placed on the north side of the chancel in a new recess built specially for it.
