The original small graveyard was extended in the 1930s and the church itself was re-seated and repaired in the 1890s, but a description written at the time of its consecration in 1856 shows how little it has changed. Its stated seating capacity of 185 was considered large for the parish which even then was thinly populated: the 1881 census recorded a total population of 212, rising to 317 by 1901, but subsequently declining.
