The church was designed by George Edmund Street and built in 1855–57 in the Gothic Revival style.[1][2] It is listed at Grade II*.[3]
A past vicar of the church was the Reverend Hubert Brasier, father of former British Prime Minister Theresa May, who was married at the church.[4]
The churchyard contains three Commonwealth war graves, of a Wiltshire Regiment soldier of World War I, and a Royal Navy sailor and Oxfordshire and Buckinghamshire Light Infantry soldier of World War II.[5]
