The tower, with decorative sandstone crenellations, is a later addition and forms the focal point of the structure. Arti stic interest is provided by the sandstone dressings and carved Y-tracery. The interior remains substantially intact, which maintains the original character of the church. The graveyard, boundary walls and piers enhance the composition of the si te.
