A parochial chapelry is a halfway house between a chapel of ease and a parish. Originally a Norman chapel, the displayed sketches of 1825 and 1828 show the original appearance of the church with a small nave, chancel and small bell-cote. The first entry of a chaplain for Rennington appears in a document of 1180 which deals with the selling of land at Ellington (Ellingham?) witnessed by Robert - Chaplain of Rennington...."
