Some of the fabric dates back to about 1220 and some to about 1300. The church was altered in the 16th century, the clerestory and roof were added in 1881, and the church was restored in 1865–68. It consists of a west tower, a nave and chancel, both with a clerestory, aisles, a northeast vestry, a south porch, and a hearse house on the south side. The tower has stepped angle buttresses, a stair turret with a spirelet, and an embattled parapet. Most of the windows contain Perpendicular tracery. Inside the church, some of the choir stall have misericords.
