Description: | The black and white photograph, taken in about 1910 and copied in 1973, shows the entrance end of the church, with the doors in a small projecting porch. There are hedges round the church and a closed wooden picket gate. The roads on either side of the church are not surfaced, and there is a brick pillar letter-box in the left-hand hedge. Usually known as the ' tin church' , it was built in 1900 on a wooden frame lined outside with corrugated iron and inside with tongue-and -groove pine boards. The clock in the little belfry above the entrance was added in 1903.The church was given up by the Church of England in 1992, and bought by the villagers in 1998 to be restored for use as a village hall.
