The church is thirteenth century in origin but with much fifteenth-century work. The double bell gable, and more, was restored in 1853–4 by John Pollard Seddon. It is of Old Red Sandstone.
The interior contains a late medieval screen, "of particular interest." The church register of baptisms and burials dates from the year 1758 and that of marriages from 1757.
