Below the nave roof is a row of blocked windows, indicating that there was a plan to build an aisle, which was never carried out. The Greyhound was probably the medieval Guildhall.

The 15th-century tower has flushwork patterns on the buttresses and parapet. The eastern buttresses are unusual in that they are extensions of the nave west wall. Below the nave roof is a row of blocked quatrefoil windows, although the aisles were never built. The chancel and vestry date from 1894.

St Mary's, one of the largest in Suffolk, is not a typical Suffolk wool church, and has an elegant lead spire. Inside is the 600-year-old Angelus Bell, one of the oldest in the country, which is inscribed 'Ave Maria Gracia Plena Dominus Tecum'.
