"The most impressive church in this part of the county," wrote Nikolaus Pevsner. "The view to look for is from the N, where indeed the churchyard has not a single tree. So here what meets the eye is architecture entirely, a building of russet stone, with a W tower, a two-storeyed porch, a N transept and a N sacristy - embattled and enriched by gargoyles below the battlements - an effect robust and sonorous."

The road from Gamlingay to the Gransdens was closed for resurfacing.
