The structure features granite steps and gate piers made from plain granite, along with an iron gate. The steps ascend to the churchyard, which is positioned high above the village street. The gate piers are monolithic and made of granite, and the iron gates have spike finials and quatrefoil decoration on the middle rail, along with an iron overthrow.
