Parish church The red sandstone church has an aisled nave, a chancel, a W tower and a S porch entrance. The chancel was rebuilt in 1754, the N aisle and arcade were added by Rickman in 1826, and the church was largely rebuilt in 1858-65. Fragments of Romanesque voussoirs have been reused as corbels beneath the guttering of the modern porch, and in 1984 a carved stone panel was found under the plaster of the E wall of the S nave aisle.

Parish church The church has an aisleless nave that continues directly into the chancel, both of the 12thc. and built of red sandstone, a greenish sandstone 15thc. tower and a timber S porch. The chancel is built over a crypt, which once contained the shrine of St Kenelm; the arch in the S chancel wall giving access to it is now blocked. There is Romanesque sculpture in the S nave doorway and on a corbel and two carved panels set in the S wall of the nave.
