The church is aisleless with a 15thc. W tower and an essentially 12thc. nave and chancel. 12thc. sculpture is found on N and S doorways, on two windows in the chancel and one in the nave, and on the chancel arch and font.
There has clearly been some readjustment of the third order arch of the S doorway. VCH suggests that the jointing of the arch indicates there was a hood-mould, and a display in the church suggests that the two packing pieces on the E side of the arch are also given as evidence. In the author's opinion, more packing pieces would have been expected to replace a label. It seems more likely that the arch slipped, creating gaps that had to be packed.
The font is said to have been removed from the church in 1817 and used as a water-tub, and then as a flower pot at Ettington Hall! It was restored to Oxhill in 1879 (information from display inside church). Eve is "Very thin and pitiful" according to Pevsner.
