The north wall of the nave has a lancet window towards the east, and a low window with a flat head to its left. The doorway has a round arch, blank tympanum, angle shafts, and restored scalloped capitals. The open timber porch is probably C15 and has a cambered tie-beam with arch-braces which have tracery decoration, and carved bargeboards. A joint in the north wall of the chancel suggests that it has been rebuilt. The C14 north and south chancel windows are of two trefoiled ogee lights under a pointed head with quatrefoil. To the right of the north window is a priest's doorway with a pointed head. The east window is of three trefoiled lights under a pointed head with tracery.

To the west is a fifth, added, bay which has a pointed arch with plain soffit. The nave and chancel have C19 collar-rafter roofs with soulaces to the collars. The chancel roof is lower and there is no chancel arch.
