The church was medieval and parts of the north wall date from the 12th century but it was restored in 1878 by the architect Henry Hall. The church is Grade II* listed by the Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport.

The disused Grantham Canal passes through the village and there is a large basin adjacent to the main road. This would have facilitated loading and mooring when the canal was in use. The basin now attracts a substantial population of swans and ducks.
