The church is built of Yorkshire sandstone,[3] and has a Lakeland slate roof with a stone ridge and copings. It consists of a continuous nave and chancel, a north aisle, and a west steeple. The steeple has a square tower with three stages, stepped diagonal buttresses, a stepped and moulded plinth, and a west window with Y-tracery. Above this is a clock face, bell openings with Y-tracery, and an octagonal broach spire with lucarnes and a weather vane. The door is up four steps, with bootscrapers either side. Inside, the east bay of the aisle serves as a vestry. There is extensive original woodwork, including the benches, pulpit, choir seats and desks. The chancel is slightly raised and has a chequered stone floor, and a piscina in the south wall.[2]
