The church stands on the site of a Gilbertine Priory founded c.1203. Made redundant in 1978 following many years of declining congregations, (Ellerton is now part of the parish of nearby Aughton), the building and churchyard fell into considerable disrepair due to lack of maintenance and serious vandalism. The contents were stripped in 1984. Subsequently the windows were all destroyed and sections of the roof fell in, giving generations of pigeons free access to roost and breed inside the church and allowing vigorous elder trees and ivy to take root and flourish within the walls. Slowly, the churchyard reverted to scrubland. Source:http://www.ellertonpriory.co.uk/
