The Devizes Gazette of April 21st 1860, in an account of the re-opening of the church after restoration, gives the following particulars:

"The church before the restoration consisted of a nave, chancel, west tower and north aisle, entirely of the date of the 15th century. The chancel was perhaps a little later in date, but was especially poor and mean in its proportions and character and unworthy of the rest of the church.

The arcade between the north aisle and the nave had entirely fallen over northwards, and was shored up by timbers, which encumbered the aisle and were most unsightly. The roofs had spread, and were in very bad condition, and the walls were very unsound."

"New roofs have been put to the nave and chancel; the chancel on larger scale, has been rebuilt; the arcade between the nave and the north aisle has been taken down and rebuilt with the old stones, so far as they were fit for the purpose. The other walls, which were unsound have been rebuilt, and the entire church has been repaired and refitted.

The old chancel screen has been repaired and is replaced glowing with colour. A screen at the tower arch has been formed out of the screen work of an old Jacobean pew, which was in the old chancel. The font has been cleaned and the few monuments, principally to the Heneage and Walker families, have been cleaned only."
