The church was built in 1877 to serve the population of poor and mainly Irish agricultural workers who arrived in the Isle of Axholme in the wake of the potato famine in the 1840s.

It was dedicated to St Joseph and St Dymphna by the Norbertines, who had established themselves at nearby Crowle in 1872.

St Oswald's stands half a mile from the present village on the site of an earlier church.

Built in 1855 in Early English style, its tall tower with its broach spire is a landmark in the surrounding flat countryside.

The tower of St Oswald's has angle buttresses - architectural features rather than purely structural ones.
