The National Monuments Service's description
In flat pasture, within a disused graveyard (LF008-014002-). This late-medieval parish church (ext. dims. 17.6m E-W; 8m N-S) is built of uncoursed rubble and limestone. The doorway is in the S wall. Apart from a simple single-light window in the W gable and splayed opes in the E gable and S wall, no other architectural features survive. It is densely overgrown with vegetation.
