The 13thc. chancel (extended in the 14thc.), has a late 12thc. chancel arch with keeled respond shafts and stiff-leaf capitals. The nave was originally aisleless, and the quoins surviving in its outer W wall may date from the 11thc. The N and S aisles are 15thc., as is the W tower. The church was extensively restored in 1875 by Ewan Christian. The late 12thc. S doorway, reset when the aisles were built, has also been restored.

Parish church The earliest surviving part of the church is the lower part of the crossing tower which is early 12thc. and which has two plain round-headed splayed windows, one on the N and one on the S wall. A S aisle was added in the late 13thc. and the N aisle was rebuilt at this time. A clerestorey was also built at this time. The chancel is 14thc. The nave and aisles were again rebuilt in the 15thc. as was the upper part of the tower. The church underwent major restoration in the 1950s and 60s, and the clerestorey was dismantled at this time. The church was rededicated in 1971. Early 12thc. sculpture is found on the S doorway to the tower.
