History
Fortified church appearing to have been built by order of the Knights Hospitaller of which it would have been one of the priories. Built on a hillock, the church is covered in stone slates. The chevet threatening to collapse, the interior has been reduced by the construction of a second wall. No transept or chapel. Bell tower in the pointed gable.
