Description

Roughly coursed and squared local limestone rubble with Bath stone dressings and a Welsh slate roof, diagonal buttresses. Small single cell church with west bellcote and integral chancel, south porch and north organ chamber. Decorated style. South wall with three windows and a steeply gabled porch between the first and second from the left. Porch with pointed arch with dripmould, gable coping and apex cross. Two-light windows in square-headed recesses, with recticulated tracery and dripmoulds over. East gable wall with 3-light window with cusped heads and quatrefoils; west wall with 2-light window but flush with the wall. North wall is blind. Coped gables with small bellcote with cross and bell on the west one and cross on the east one.

Plain interior but very unaltered. Plastered and painted walls, low pitch waggon roof. The 2-centred arch in the north wall leading to the organ chamber is probably an alteration. The furnishings are all contemporary except for the font which is dated 1682, the reredos of 1903 and the later panelling around it.
