The church is built of sandstone with a slate roof. The steeple has a tower with three stages, large diagonal buttresses, a northeast stair turret, and bell openings with ogee-headed lights and pointed hood moulds. On the tower is an octagonal broach spire with lucarnes and a weathervane. There are embattled parapets on the porch, the aisles and the chapel, and in the nave and south wall of the chancel are three-light Perpendicular windows. The walls of the church contain re-set Norman fragments, notably including two figures of women, one seated, who may represent the Virgin Mary. Inside, the gallery and organ case date from 1893 and were designed by Temple Moore. The font is circular and is 13th century. There are several monuments, including a tablet of 1580, and a wall brass from 1688.
