Background

History

The church dates from the 14th century, and contains fragments of masonry from an earlier church building on the site. The building was modernised in 1955 when electricity was installed. By the 1990's extensive repairs were required which were beyond the scope of the small population. In April 1999 the church was vested into the hands of the Churches Conservation Trust.

Architecture

The plan of St Michael's consists of a nave with a south porch, and a chancel. At the west end is a bellcote. The pulpit dates from the 17th century, and the communion rail is in Jacobean style. The chancel screen and the lectern were moved from Great Malvern Priory at the time of the 1910 restoration. The oldest monument is dated 1688. There are two bells, one of which dates from the 15th century.
