rubble with ashlar dressings, steeply-pitched slate roof with
bands of blue, green and purple slate.
STYLE: Early English style.
PLAN: small building on north-south axis, with east porch,
3-sided north apse, and west wing (probably vestry).

buttresses, stepped gable coping (the upper portion dislodged
and lying loose on the ground), a segmental-pointed outer
archway with double-chamfered surround and a dripmould, and a
similarly arched inner doorway. Left of the porch is a small
segmental-pointed one-light window.
The south gable has a strongly stepped triple-lancet window
with hoodmoulds, and gable coping with an apex cross.
The apse has low buttresses, a 2-centred arched 2-light window
under a gable in the centre and small arched-triangle windows
in the flanking sides.
On the west side is a short gabled wing with angle buttresses
and a very tall gable chimney with off-sets.
