A Gothic building by E W Mountford dated 1897, the eastern parts added 1905. It
is of red brick with stone dressings and tile roof.
The west end is composed somewhat in the manner of a Tudor gatehouse with
octagonal stone-banded towers flanking the gable-end of the nave. This is
pierced by a small pointed arch door surround and above it a fine large west
window of panel tracery, the apex of the gable above a cill being lit by a small
window of panel tracery.
The top stage of each tower forms a traceried and glazed lantern with a shallow
octagonal cap and spirelet. The west end is completed beyond the towers by the
end walls of the aisles, each lit by a 2-lancet window. On the north and south
elevations the clerestory windows comprise triplets of cusped lancets beneath flat
heads.
At the east end stepped buttresses support the gable-end, each side of the panel
traceried east window. The end walls of the aisles extend as at the west end.
A freestanding north tower was to have completed the design.
