The site of Abbots Langley parish church was probably originally occupied by a Saxon church. The nave and aisles with their beautiful Norman arches were added 1140 to 1150 and the church was dedicated to St Lawrence the Martyr in 1154. The tower was built between 1190 and 1200. The southeast Corpus Christi Chapel was built between 1307 and 1327.

The Saxon church fell into decay and in 1400 was replaced by the present chancel building. In addition, the chancel was linked to the Corpus Christi Chapel by a two-bay arcade. In 1450 the aisle walls were rebuilt, the clerestory raised and the nave and aisles re-roofed. Like many local churches of that period, it was built with Totternhoe Clunch, a hard chalk stone, and flint in a chequer pattern.

An extensive churchyard extends north and north-west from the church and contains thirteen war graves.
