The local church of St John the Baptist dates from the late 15th century with several important architectural features, most notably the original tower.
The church has been built with a mixture of building stones including carstone, greensand, limestone and chiefly with much knapped flint in the Victorian nave and chancel.
It has a fairly squat 15th-century tower (with six bells), but the rest of the fabric is mostly 19th century, restored by Thomas Henry Wyatt in 1859.
The pulpit is Elizabethan, and there is an early 17th-century monument to John Bowyer, who died in 1599.
In the churchyard, close to the porch, is a gravestone in the form of a three-sided pyramid; a tetrahedron.
