Built of sandstone rubble, plastered within, the church has an aisleless nave and chancel, of the 12thc. and 13thc. respectively, a N chapel ofc.1560 and a 17thc. or 18thc. W tower. The doorways on the N and S sides of the nave are both inset into a frontispiece that runs the full height of the building; the N doorway is larger and more grandly decorated than the S (the slope of the land from S to N determined that the main entrance should be on the N).
