The original chancel, chancel arch and south arcade of the nave were built in the late 13th century, but only two original windows remain. In the 14th century the north aisle vestry, and clearstory were added. The arcade, chapel, tower, and porch were added in the 15th century. The chapel and several new windows were added in 1488. The chancel was restored in 1863 and the rest of the building in 1893. In 1971 the church was deemed redundant, as there were originally two parishes in Aldwincle. The building has been turned over to the Churches' Conservation Trust and turned into an architectural museum. It is occasionally used for funerals.
