A church was built on the site in the Saxon period, and rebuilt in the 12th century.
[1][2][3] The church is built of stone with a Welsh slate roof, and consists of a nave, a chancel and a west tower.
Inside, part of a Norman piscina and some Saxon carvings survive from the old church.
There is a Gothic oak screen, and a west gallery and organ which were moved from Selby Abbey.
The wellhead is built of stone, the side walls are rusticated, and it carries a flat slab roof above the spring.
