The church is constructed in rock‑faced stone with
ashlar dressings and a roof of slate. Its
cruciform plan incorporates aisles, an
apsidal chancel, and a south‑west tower positioned outside the line of the aisle. Designed in the
Gothic Revival style, the building has a five‑
bay nave and aisles with a projecting plinth, weathered
buttresses, paired cusped
lancet windows to the aisles, and two two‑light
clerestory windows with geometrical
tracery in each bay. The aisles carry a
coped parapet. with angled buttresses, a south entrance, cusped lancet openings, and paired two‑light
belfry windows with
transoms. It is surmounted by a
broach spire with
lucarnes, set behind a coped parapet. The polygonal apse includes two‑light windows and weathered buttresses, with
vestries positioned to the north and south.
Interior Internally, circular columns carry a double‑
chamfered nave
arcade; the trusses of the
hammerbeam roof above include curved
wind‑bracing and
tie rods. There is extensive carved timberwork, including the
canopied stalls, panelling, pews,
pulpit,
reredos, and the 1883 organ loft by
Forster and Andrews. The church also retains
Minton floor tiles, and its original elaborate iron light standards and other fittings survive as particularly notable features. The church is noted for its extensive and varied stained‑glass scheme, largely by
Heaton, Butler and Bayne. The south transept contains a large window depicting the
Sermon on the Mount, with four smaller scenes below showing
Jesus in the synagogue;
Jesus and the woman at the well;
the Good Samaritan; and the
Pharisee and the Publican. The north transept includes windows of '
Suffer the Little Children' and '
Feed My Sheep'. The clerestory windows follow an unusual scheme: those on the north side depict figures from Greek, Roman,
Renaissance, and modern history, while those on the south portray representatives of
Early Christian,
Roman Catholic,
Anglican, and
Nonconformist traditions. ==Associated lychgate==
