The present stone church was built in the 13th Century on the site of a Saxon Church by the Abbot of Bec and apart from the removal of a tower it remains largely unchanged to the present day.
In 2015 a major repair project was completed for Cottisford Church. This comprised: repointing of its exterior walls, repairs to it's roof, repairs to it's rainwater goods, stonework and perimeter channel; repairs to it's leaded lights and window protection. This work was facilitated by generous support from Viridor Credits Environmental Company and Oxfordshire Historic Churches Trust.
