In the angle between the tower and the nave on the north side is a stair turret which rises above the height of the tower, and contains round-headed casement windows. On the west side of the tower is a doorway with a semicircular head in a loosely Romanesque style, which is decorated with spaced chevron motifs. Above the door is a two-light window in loosely Early English style, with a circular clock face above that. On each side of the top stage are three lancet bell openings. The south porch has a loosely Romanesque doorway, above which is a niche containing a statue of Saint Michael. The windows along the sides of the church are in Early English style.

Inside the church, the nave has a hammerbeam roof. Both the nave and the chancel are floored with encaustic tiles. In the church are four brass corona chandeliers. The font is decorated with encaustic tiles. In the church are memorials to the Daintry and Tootal Broadhurst families. The stained glass is described as being "delightfully bad".
