As well as earlier Anglo-Saxon & Norman features, the church had a major rebuild from c1265 to 1320 culminating in the magnificent tower and spire (283 ft), which was England's tallest parish church for some 150 years. 

The interior was remodelled in 1865-69 by Sir George Gilbert Scott and new roofs added and the Chancel raised up. There is a good variety of stained glass windows from Victorian to late C20th. The Georgian and early Victorian monuments are rich and varied with sculptors including Henry Cheere and James Smith. 

The Coffee Shop will be open for refreshments and the Civic Society will be running a local history bookstall. 

Aspects of congregational life will be displayed at various times especially on Sunday afternoon.
