In 1856 the east window, made by Messrs. Hardman showing the Resurrection and Crucifixion, was installed. In 1857 the chancel and nave were rebuilt, and the north aisle was added; these were designed by H. Woodyer. Also at this time the pews, and baptismal font were added. The vestry was added around 1887, at the same time as the organ chamber and the south-facing porch on the tower. [4] [5] [6]
The building is made from ashlar with a Cotswold stone roof. The opening between the nave and north aisle consists of three bays in the 13th century style. [4] There is an Elizabethan style panelled roof with styled bosses and the Arnold and Barrow families coat of arms. [5]
