The settlement is recorded in the Domesday Book as consisting of 26 households, with Earl Hugh of Chester as Lord of the Manor.[1]

The church, dedicated to Saint Helen, was built of pale orange brick in 1841, on the site of an earlier church. C. Hodgson Fowler restored the interior in 1892, retaining the 14th-century font. It is a Grade II listed building.[2]
