There are some beautiful memorials in this chuch and I will be sorting and posting them over the next day or so. Unfortunately I was a little short of time so did not take as many photographs or achieve the quality I would wish. My thanks to those who provided the information and made me so welcome.

The church was opened in 1913 and the chancel added in 1921.

The WW1 memorial consists of a bronze tablet on marble and the choir stalls.
