The building is constructed of ashlar stone and includes a large two-stage tower with a corner turret on the southwest side. The church has crudely cusped tracery, with three-light windows featuring pointed arches on the ground floor and four-light windows in rectangular frames on the first floor. The roof is made of slate and has a crested ridge.
