The National Monuments Service's description
Originally undivided nave and chancel church (int. L. 14.9m; int. Wth. 5.2m) aligned E-W and constructed of very large roughly coursed limestone and sandstone blocks. The E and W gables still survive, the W gable has been heightened, and there is a small round-headed sandstone window in the E gable which overlooks an internal stone alter. In the E end of the S wall is a simple flat-headed light and there is a mostly broken out light high up in the W gable, with a simple recess on either side. The mostly broken out doorway is in the W end of the S wall. There is an aumbry in the E end of the N wall, with a niche to S. The W end of the church is occupied by a mausoleum.
