La façade ouest, précédée d'un porche, est accolée au nord d'une sacristie en saillie du 15e siècle, et d'un clocher de même époque dont la souche conserve des parties du 12e siècle. Au nord, la nef est reliée à un collatéral du 13e siècle, refait au 16e avec deux travées voûtées sur liernes et tiercerons. Transept du 12e siècle dont la voûte du carré fut refaite au 15e siècle, et dont les bras étaient primitivement accompagnés d'absidioles disparues. Le choeur, désaxé, se termine par un chevet plat, ajouré d'une fenêtre en tiers point refaite au 16e siècle.

History
The south wall of the nave, in small ashlar, dates from the 11th century. The west façade, preceded by a porch, is attached to the north by a projecting sacristy from the 15th century, and a bell tower of the same period whose base preserves parts from the 12th century. To the north, the nave is connected to an aisle from the 13th century, remade in the 16th with two bays vaulted on liernes and tiercerons. Transept from the 12th century whose vault of the crossing was remade in the 15th century, and whose arms were primitively accompanied by disappeared absidioles. The choir, off-axis, terminates in a flat chevet, pierced by a pointed arch window remade in the 16th century.
