The Nave and Chancel were built around 1360. The most striking external feature is the contrast between the dark tower and the creamy yellow of the rest of the church. The tower was renovated in 1883/84 and re-faced with ashlar stone from Harehills. As time has gone by the newer stonework has darkened while the rest of the church, built with yellow limestone has retained its original features. The first phase of a reordering was completed in December 2008.
