Crediton parish church was actually dedicated as the 'Collegiate Church of the Holy Cross and the Mother of Him who hung thereon'. It is built on the site of a Saxon minster and cathedral dedicated to St Boniface in c. 910 AD.

The present church was begun in the 12th century, extended in the 13th century, the nave and chancel rebuilt in the early 15th century and restored in the 19th century by architect John Hayward.

There are a number of monuments inside the church as well as numerous burials in the square churchyard surrounding the church. Parish registers go back to 1557.
