The renovated chancel is plain, of flint with stone dressings. The nave was originally a completely timber framed structure, of which the roof and gables survive, but the brick walling is a replacement of the C16; a projecting turret at the south-east corner was the rood stair. A large red brick tower has a crenellated top and band, a western 3-light window above a doorway opening con- taining a C15 solid moulded timber frame, there are stepped buttresses (diagonal at the west side) at the corners. The Victorian aisle and vestry are of lesser height, in flint walling. Red tile roof. One good 4-light C16 window with a hood-mould above 5 cusped lights, the other nave windows being copies. The interior has a C16 wooden screen, 2 groups of C16 piers,monuments, and an old font.
