The present structure here dates from the early 13th century but it is thought that an earlier church stood on the same site, being roughly of the same size. Nothing of that earlier structure remains. The tall, elegant three stage tower and spire date from the 13th century and is slightly offset to the north. According to the church information booklet, several of the church dimensions are imperfect and off centre. See Peterborough Churchcrawler for further information.
