The church has a Norman nave and chancel, with Norman mouldings to the south door and chancel arch. The porch is Tudor.
The south porch dates from 1466. The tower has stone figures at the corners instead of pinnacles. The whole church was restored in 1872. The vicar in 1906 was the Rev John Brown.

Beckbury, just a mile or so to the south, can certainly be described as a village, and it still retains its pub, the Seven Stars.
As Reading expanded south, St Giles', decaying and small, proved unable to cope, and Christchurch was built in 1861-2.
At the south end of the village is Townend, a typical Lakeland statesman's house, now in the care of the National Trust.
Eamont Bridge, just south of Penrith on the A6, takes its name from this splendid three-arched bridge across the River Eamont.
In this view we look past the Horse and Jockey pub towards the south of the village; the church is beyond the high tree on the left.
Since 1955 a new residential block has been built in the background of the picture, whilst a new library to the south of the chapel has appeared.
Ahead is the 17th-century timber-framed White Horse and the Victorian South View Cottage. The road to the left leads to the former Independent Chapel of 1750.
Carfax stands at the crossing point where the original north to south and east to west routes ran through Oxford.
By 1955 a new station had been built on the corner of Brooke Road and South Street. In recent years this has been considerably modernised.
A half-mile south along London Road, it was built in 1861 by the school usher, Rev W J Earle, in brick with a subdued polychromatic treatment by a Birmingham architect.
There is now a scheme to encourage more livestock farming on the South Downs.
Acomb House, to the south of the village square, was built in the 1730s, though it is thought to incorporate the remnants of an earlier house.
This view, from the end of a path leading past the Brownlow Arms to the west bank of the Trent, looks across the tidal river from Nottinghamshire to South Clifton in Lincolnshire.
On the right can be seen the Romanesque doorway leading to the South Transept, a very fine example of 12th century stonework. The building in the middle distance is the Synod Hall, now Dublinia.
On the north side the walls are about two feet out of true because of subsidence and the collapse of the south walls in 1569.
Goodworth Clatford lies a couple of miles to the south of Andover. We can see horses trotting through the village (centre). The name 'Clatford' means 'ford where burdock grew.'
The photographer in this instance was looking across to the south bank, recording for posterity a scene which no longer exists: only the bridge survives.
This view looks south-east towards the Westbury White Horse.
Sawley Bridge Marina, on the Sawley Cut of the River Trent, south of Long Eaton, was already starting to cater for the ever-increasing boating trade when this photograph was taken in the mid-50s.
Whitford church, dedicated to St Mary and St Beuno, is just over 5 miles to the south east of Prestatyn.
