The north wall is a surviving part of the original, larger church. Inside it has an oak-panelled, three-decker pulpit-cum-lectern with a Jacobean canopy, which is still in use.In 1680 the church installed a clock built by Richard Roe of Epperstone.The octagonal castellated font is thought to be from the 15th century. A wooden screen dividing the nave from the chancel is said to have come from Owthorpe Hall.The church was restored in 1888 and again in 1905 by Arthur Brewill and Basil Baily when the plaster ceiling was removed to expose the roof timbers, and the masonry of the windows was restored and the windows reglazed.
