History

The church is medieval. It was closed for five or six years and reopened after a restoration in 1868.[2]

Much of its stained glass dating from the Victorian era was destroyed in a bombing raid in World War II. The east window was replaced in the 1960s with an Ascension scene by David King.

On being made redundant as a place of worship, it was then used as a gymnasium but more recently has been used for exhibitions and antiques markets.

gollark: That *would* still require them to manually go over them in every category, and there are a lot of categories and subcategories. It would be nice if they actually explained what "amazon's choice" means, though, and had a separate one for "known good" stuff
gollark: They have quite a lot of categories, though. I suppose for broader ones they could probably have a few featured products, perhaps with video reviews and extra docs and stuff.
gollark: Especially locks and stuff, where telling if it's bad is hard.
gollark: I don't think you could reasonably expect them to have specialists review every (popular) product in every category to find good ones.
