There was a Baptist chapel from 1857 which was enlarged in 1874. Like so many village chapels it closed, in 2006-2007, and is now housing. The foundation stones are largely covered by plants.

A couple of miles north of Chorleywood, in very attractive country above the Chess valley. The small church is well south of the main village centre. Basically a 12th century building, with the chancel extended in the 13th and 14th centuries. The tower is 15th and 16th century. G.G. Scott restored the church in 1865-66, adding vestries and porch and extending the aisles. The pulpit is 16th century, east window by Clayton and Bell with other early 20th century glass by Christopher Whall and modern glass by Chapel Studios and Alfred Fisher.
