The church as it now stands was completed in 1813 as a replacement for an older structure.[1] It was built under the auspices of Revd Robert Trail to a plan drawn by Henry Wynne.[1] In June 1857, a new organ was installed by Dublin-based firm Telford & Telford, at a cost of £37.[1] A renovation was undertaken in 1883 and involved adding a new pulpit, pews, flooring and heating.[1] Repairs were also made to the roof and spire.[citation needed] Further roof repairs were undertaken following damage caused by a hurricane in December 1894.[1]
