Description

The 12th century church was rebuilt by Pickering between 1846 and 1847. The rebuild included some original material. It has a four bay nave with a south porch in the second bay, and a two bay chancel. Over the west gable is a bellcote with two openings. In front of the porch is a memorial slab.

The church is now a college chapel.
