Edmund Sharpe made the plans and the estimate for the new church, the cost being £1,288. It is described as Pre Archaeological Gothic of the 13th to 15th century.
Pevsner describes it briefly.
“It has paired lancets along the sides, a west tower with quite an original managing of the bell-openings and the crenellation, and a barn roof inside.”
