The Ministère de la Culture's notice

Les éléments les plus anciens de l'église de Lierville remontent à la fin du 12e siècle. Ils comprennent le mur sud de la nef, le portail occidental et le clocher. La flèche de ce clocher et sept pans sur huit de son étage se sont malheureusement effondrés en janvier 1968 et ont été reconstruits à l'identique. A la fin du 12e siècle, le choeur de l'édifice est démoli et, à sa place, il en est construit un nouveau de deux travées : la première accolée au clocher, la seconde à la suite, terminée par un chevet plat. Au 13e ou au 14e siècle, cette travée orientale est doublée au sud par une autre, accolée elle-même au clocher. Au 16e siècle, la reconstruction totale de la nef est vraisemblablement entreprise, mais se limite à l'édification d'un bas-côté au sud, de cinq travées en avant de celui du choeur.

The oldest elements of the church of Lierville date back to the late 12th century. They include the south wall of the nave, the western doorway and the bell tower. The spire of this bell tower and seven out of eight panels of its storey unfortunately collapsed in January 1968 and were rebuilt identically. At the end of the 12th century, the choir of the building is demolished and in its place a new one is built with two bays: the first adjoining the bell tower, the second following it, terminated by a flat chevet. In the 13th or 14th century, this eastern bay is doubled to the south by another, itself adjoining the bell tower. In the 16th century, the complete reconstruction of the nave is presumably undertaken, but is limited to the building of an aisle to the south, of five bays in front of that of the choir.
