Built of mortared rubble masonry with large stones as quoins and freestone dressings. Slate roof with stone copings on shaped kneelers and surmounted by cross finials, W gable bellcote and tall dressed stack with arched hood at the E gable of the N vestry. The E window is a pointed arched window of 3 trefoil headed lights and trefoils and quatrefoil in the head; outer arch of roughly dressed stone voussoirs and moulded label with lions head stop to L and floriate stop to R. The C16 S chancel window has 2 round-headed lights in a rectangular frame, the N and S transept windows are tripartite lancets and there are similar detailed windows of 2 lights along the N wall of the nave; the E window of the S transept is a square leaded light and there is a rectangular window of 2-lights in the N wall of the vestry. The porch entrance is a pointed arch with chamfered jambs and hood mould.

The church has an exposed C16 roof of arch braced collared trusses, those of chancel and S transept have cusped struts; the octagonal font is probably of the same period. The fittings are C19, the sanctuary raised by 2 steps with encaustic tiling and a moulded rail on twisted stanchions with floriate brackets. In the N wall is a paired, pointed arched recess with a sandstone surround; moulded corbelled shelf at base and moulded arches with shaped pendants. The E window shows The Nativity, The Crucifixion, and The Ascension. On the E wall of the S transept is a marble memorial tablet surmounted by an urn and on a slate, obelisk-shaped rear plate: to Catherine, wife of Griffith Owen, Clerk d.1824 and Griffith Owen, d.1826, Rector of the Parish and County Magistrate. On the N wall of the nave is an ornate ogee headed marble memorial to Lowry, daughter of Robert Owen, Clerk and Vicar of Caernarfon; his wife Jane d. 1837; Jane, his eldest daughter's daughter d.1848 and Mary, his 3rd daughter d.1849.
