The oldest parts of this church date from early in the thirteenth century. There was an extensive rebuilding some sixty years ago. The church is unique in having two towers and two peals of bells. The older tower was built by Henry de Rokeby to serve if necessary as a frfrtress. It is the new peal of eight bells which listeners will hear before the service. The Venerable Richard Brook , who gives the address, has been Archdeacon of Coventry and Rector of St. Andrew with Holy Trinity, Rugby, since 1935. He was Head-master of Liverpool College from 1919 to 1928, and Vicar of Don-caster and Canon of Sheffield from 1928 to 1935.
