 This was followed up by the formation of the Palgrave Society to carry out maintenance in the church and churchyard and also organise future services.By organising regular working parties and drawing attention to the historical importance of the church and its monuments it became clear that conservation was the only way forward so in October 1976 the church was officially vested in the redundant Churches Fund.The main structure of the church is built from coursed flint with limestone quoins.
