Architecture
The church is constructed in red sandstone rubble with ashlar dressings. It has a roof of red tiles that are pierced along the ridge. Its plan consists of a four-bay nave, a short chancel with a vestry beneath, and a northeast tower. The tower is located in the angle between the nave and the chancel, and is buttressed. It contains a clock face and louvred lancet bell openings. At the summit is a pyramidal cap with a weathervane. The nave windows are small, with three lights and trefoil heads. On the sides of the chancel are two lancet windows. Beneath the chancel, the vestry has a door with a Caernarvon arch, and a two-light mullioned window. The east end is buttressed and contains a triple lancet window. At the west end are four lancet windows with trefoil heads, with a quatrefoil window above, and an entrance doorway leading to an internal porch. The font is octagonal, and is carried on eight clustered shafts. Above the altar is a 17th-century painting of the Petition of the Repentant Sinners. The east window contains stained glass dated 1882 by Kempe, which is a memorial to Sir Philip de Malpas Grey-Egerton and his wife. There are other windows containing glass by Kempe, dated between 1885 and 1895.
